Check link between Sharepoint and Workspace
- Anonymous3 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
If you upload a PBIX file in SharePoint, then upload a PBIX file from SharePoint in your workspace, and then when you edit and change that PBIX in Desktop and then upload it to SharePoint again (select Replace), the report for the workspace will be updated after about an hour. But this does not apply to saving different versions of a report, as you can only replace old reports to ensure that their UIDs are consistent. If you want to save a different version of a report, you can rename it and save it as another report and publish it to the workspace, and then the initial report always chooses to be replaced with a new version of the report, and then upload the report within the workspace, so that you can have a different version of the report in the workspace and a new version of the report forever.

After working with Microsoft Support, it turns out that the way we are saving the report to Sharepoint matters. We need to save to the Sharepoint directly in desktop, via Save As, versus uploading the file into Sharepoint.
The issue is that by doing it that way from desktop, we will lose version control, which is important for our business. Therefore, we will need to manually publish the file to the Workspace, and in a separate step, publish the file to Sharepoint and apply our version control.
