Creating data sets in Power BI service from the data flow

Hi All,

 

Is it possible to create a dataset directly from the data flows using Power BI service with a Pro license? Or do you still need to go through the Power BI Desktop?

@diyannavarro The license isn't the issue, you need to connect to dataflows via the Desktop as that is the only supported path at this point.
