Advocate IIDownload .pbix greyed out
Hi biswedishdevil,
You an go to My Workspace, then create a content pack, publish to that specific app group follow Create and publish an organizational content pack (tutorial).
Then in the app workspace, assume you have edit permission, then you can use Get Data-> My organization to get content pack, the report will display in that app workspace.
Best Regards,

Advocate IIIWith all due respect, that's a load of hooey. Why on Earth would this product exist without an ability to export your source code from the web version? This sounds like a decision made by the sales & marketing team.
I had to learn on the web version, now have the desktop version. All my prior content is stranded on the web version. Graying out the button that says "Download a .pbix copy" was just one more way of thumbing their nose at me.
Clearly NOT SOLVED. This tool needs a LOT of work. There's no unity of design. Typical Microsoft product where they've thrown 10,000 parts into a pile and expect it to be a running car afterwards.
John_L_Edwards I can certainly understand the frustration, but to use your own analogy this is more like you jumping into a brand new car not understanding how it works and blaming the manufacturer for your accident because you didn't read the manual and operate it correctly. Since the creation of the product, the bulk of everything a report author needs to do is in the Desktop, the Service currently provides a fraction of the functionality required to produce reports. We all get frustrated, and we're all here to help each other out. No need to start slamming the product or the team that supports it.

More like jumping into a new car and discovering (undocumented) that it can't travel across Pennsylvania's border with Maryland for no discernible reason.*
This tool really has some work to do on conceptual unity. If a feature isn't available don't gray it out. Gray-Out means you're not in a proper context, not you can never do that. If you want me to be positive I'll make it a feature request -- work on better feedback in the interface.
* Which may indeed happen with some cars in the near future!

I have the issue with the greyed out link to download for files that were created in Desktop.
