Issues sharing content packs with groups
I've had no issues sharing a Content Pack with a Group.. I just started typing in the PBI group name, it auto resolves and I select.
Sharing to individual users will not work because it will only be visible in their personal workspace.
Group 3 works because the entrie org selection must include all the groups as well...
Do you have Exchange Online? or Office 365 E3/E5? This may be a license issue if you don't... maybe you won't have access to use the created group to share with...
Thanks for the reply, I didn't realise that for individuals.
As for the Groups, it does display and autoresolve the group when I add them to the Content Pack. When I set up a group though and am presented with the 'Add Group Members' field it does not autoresolve my group, instead I added my group email address i.e. [email protected] - is this incorrect?
In terms of licensing we have a number of users on E3 with Power BI Pro licenes but the majority are on Business Premium with Power BI free.

To rule that out I've now made all users within the groups involved Power BI Pro licensed (although some still have Business Premium rather than E3/5).
I have also gone back to the group and added the users via their individual email addresses rather than the group email as the documentation suggests that isn't working yet (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-create-a-group-in-power-bi/).
I still cannot however access the content pack shared with 'Group 2' though from within Group 2 though.- maracles10 years ago

Just bumping this to see if anyone had any thoughts or suggestions I could try?
