Is the free license published report are public?

Hello

Can you please confirm that if a free Power BI license user creates and publishes a report, will it become publicly available to anyone ? Is the report link is public?

No. it is not. When you create a report in Powerbi free version, you still have control over your contents and it is only light weight version of PowerBI with only missing features than pro version are either related to sharing and collabrating between users  or refreshing data.

Hi @wajahatabbas,

 

No, only after you shared your reports/dashboards with others, the reports/dashboards can be accessible by others which you have shared with, no matter you're a Power BI Free user or Pro user.

 

For more details about sharing a dashboard and reports with colleagues and others, you can refer to this article. And here is the difference between Power BI Free user and Pro user.Smiley Happy
