Helper IAccess to Reports for Free License users
Hi zahirmohideen,
Yes, that is correct. To share content with free Power BI users, the workspace needs to be hosted in a Premium capacity. This means that you would need to have a Premium capacity license in order to create a workspace in a Premium capacity.
The Premium capacity license is different from the Premium per User (PPU) license that you currently have. The Premium capacity license allows you to create and manage dedicated cloud resources that are used to host Power BI content. With this license, you can create workspaces in a dedicated capacity that can be shared with free users.
If you do not have a Premium capacity license, then the content in your workspaces will be hosted in a shared capacity, and you will not be able to share it with free Power BI users.
If you do not have a Premium capacity license, then the content in your workspaces will be hosted in a shared capacity, and you will not be able to share it with free Power BI users.
Best regards,
Isaac Chavarria

zahirmohideenThank you very much . Appreciate your response.
Hi! I'm working on a slide that shows that report distribution options (dashboards/paginated) are available based upon the workspace license (pro/ppu/premium) and recipient license (no pbi/pro/ppu/premium). These combinations are very confusing! Would you be willing to review my slides? I'd gladly pay a consulting fee or provide a gift card, etc. It's a part of my job that I have mastered yet! Thank you. Jerry
