Allow external users (outside organization) to edit reports
Hi all,
I shared a report and semantic model to external user and granted them build access. The external user was able to create a report using the shared semantic model, but after saving it, they can no longer edit it.
How can I enable the external user to edit the report they created?
Hi elim555 Inorder for the external user to edit the report please try this
- Grant reshare permission to ensure the user has access to the dataset or model.
- Add them as a member or contributor to the workspace.
- Confirm Azure B2B collaboration is enabled for external access.
- Suggest saving the report in a workspace where they have edit rights.
- Ensure the external user has a Power BI Pro or Premium Per User license.

Thanks In Advance
