Hi Team,

Hi @bhaskar39 

If you want to publish the pbit file to Power BI Service, it cannot support,  we can publish pbix file to Power BI Service instead of pbit file, you can refer to the following link.

If you want to publish pbix file(report) to Power BI Service by powershell , you can refer to the following command.

New-PowerBIReport -Path '.\report.pbix' -Name 'Report' -Workspace ( Get-PowerBIWorkspace -Name 'Team Workspace' )

You can refer to the following link.

But first, you need to install the PowerBI Model in PowerShell, you can refer to the following link.
