Live Connection to a shared semantic model with subsequent publishing to the Power BI Service

Dear Experts: 

I am currently learning the wonderful world of Power BI. 

I am having a basic question: 

Say I have Build Permission on a semantic model and connect to this shared model from the Power BI Desktop through a live connection.
I do not have access to any workspace in the Power BI Service.
Does this mean I will not be able to publish the Power BI report (that I will build from the shared semantic model) to the Power Bi Service? Am I getting this right?
Expert Help is very much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.

Best Regards Andreas

  • Correct, you would not be able to publish to the service if you do not have at least contributor access to a workspace.  If you have a personal workspace you can publish to that.
