Handing developments (in the service) by 'free users'
Hi,
I have a report which has been developed in isolation by a free user in the Power BI service (not desktop), the user can see the report in their workspace but cannot share (understandable).
I have a Pro license and i am a Power BI admin but i cannot find a way to extract his (theoretical) PBIX to allow me to re-develop, setup datasources and publish and share correctly. There is no PBIX he can pass to me (as if developed in PBI desktop because he developed it in the service).
I can see this report in his personal workspace when i search for it in the admin portal but cannot copy.
The user cannot 'copy to' his report into a workspace i created or download a copy of his report (Pro licence needed) .
The report is locked into the users personal workspace - please help this report get out into the wild 🙂 !
Thanks
Hi montanaBI ,
Here is a way to do it- this method has some complexity to it:

It might be easier to just re-create the report in Power BI desktop.
