    Hi. It seems that you want to Publish to Web reports. That feature can be used by a Free (or as you said basic) and Pro User. Both can Publis hto Web reports. The limitation here is that the feature is prevented by default. A Power Bi Admin or Global Admin role in office 365 should change that configuration. That account can login in Power Bi Service site as a Free account (without the trial) and go over the settings symbol on the top right corner -> Tenant Settings. Under tenant settings they can find the generation of embed codes restricted as "only existing ones and can't create new ones". Once they change that to a group in office or the whole company you will be able to Publish to Web with any license.

    Hope this helps,
