Hi,
I have a few different Power BI reports using same dataset published on Power BI Report Server (on prem). Is there a way to use the same dataset for multiple reports with Power BI Report Server?
Thanks,
Mihaela
Solved! Go to Solution.
The only way to do this on-prem in PBIRS is to use SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services) to host the data model. Then you can create multiple live connected pbix reports back against the one data model. You cannot connect to the data model in a pbix report like you can on the service.

Is it still true that you need to use SSAS for this?
