Deployment Pipelines
Hi Anonymous , Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
Currently deployment pipelines don’t support PBIP files, especially from Git-connected workspaces (Overview of Fabric deployment pipelines - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn). While your semantic model deploys, the report fails because pipelines are built for PBIX-based workflows, not PBIP.
Since you're using Azure DevOps and Git, the correct approach is to deploy using Git sync or Power BI REST APIs—not pipelines. That way, you keep your CI/CD intact without switching to PBIX.

Thank you.Thank you for the clarification! I will explore the other options you listed.
Do you know if PBIP files will eventually be functional in deployment pipelines?
Fingers crossed!
Hi Anonymous
What happens if you take your PBIP report and save it back as a pbix report and upload it to your dev workspace and then try and deploy using the deployment pipelines. Will that then work.
I can give that a try...but it does defeat the pupose of my CICD. My "dev" workspace is connected to a repo in azure devops.
