Error sharing a report using power bi premium

Hey there,

I have a user trying to share a report they built and I am stuck.

We have PBI Premium and the user has a Pro license.

I have created a workspace that has the premium server on it. This works for every other report being shared in the company.

So I am able to open the report I believe because I have a Pro license.  Other people get an error.

That error says:

 

 

Also one user got this error:

 

 

I checked and I do not see an dataset for this report in PowerBI.  It was a simple report using a CSV as the dataset.

 

I tried adding a user to thr workspace and that didn't work either.

What are your thoughts?

Thanks

    Every report has a dataset. No reports are based on CSV files. The dataset can ingest a CSV file via Power Query, but the report is always based on a dataset. You need to find out where that dataset is. It might be in a Pro workspace, not Premium, so those without a Pro license will not be able to see it. You will need to move the dataset to the Premium workspace for that to work.
