How to share dashboard with Free users with Pro License?
Hey Anonymous ,
to your questions:
1. No, you can either publish to web for the whole world without any check or you can restrict, but then everyone who should have access also needs a pro license.
2. When you use Premium per User, only other people with Premium per User license can see your content.
From my experience there are 5 approaches:
1. Share it with everyone who knows the link (highly not recommended)!
2. Get everyone a Pro license who should see the report.
3. Get a premium capacity (starting from 4990 USD), then you can share with free users.
4. Share the PBIX-files with other users and they have to use Power BI Desktop.
5. Create a portal/website with a login and use Power BI embedded to include elements from a report or the whole report (needs programming skills).
I think was not really what you wanted to hear, but that's the current situation.

There is no such thing as free. I myself begged and pleaded with my company to get me a Pro License for months. I even wrote a return on investment ROI to obtain a Pro License. Company grants me a license, yeah I'm excited! I spend lots of time creating Dashboards. Then I start to share them accept,... wait.... what... alas, no one can see them or access them because they don't have a Pro or Premium PPU License. What is the point of even selling Pro Licenses? So people can make content that no one will ever see. So, now I got egg on my face for all of the hype I placed on Power Bi. A Pro License was arduous enough to get. Now I would have to try and get Premium for everyone who would only use it as a viewer. Thanks but no thanks
Anonymous Totally understand how you feel! Hope you are able to convince your company to get the premium licence. Best of luck!
