I was able to pulish a report sample to web on March 2021, as of now the report still working as usual. However, I lost the option to publish to web, I tried on other report and there are no such option too. I followed the guildance from communiy post but still can't fix it. Appreciate if anyone can offer any insight.
As of 8/4/2021, the option is gone.
Setting is the same as before. I am member of the "security testing" group
As you can see this was the record where I published to web
Solved! Go to Solution.
I found out the reason why I can't publish to web, for a very silly and buggy reason. I don't know why Microsoft made it such troublesome. While I trying to publish my report to web through various other alternative option, such as through PowerPoint using OneDrive to embed, I went back to edit my report in Power BI Service and found out that in edit mode, the publish to web button is there! But is not available via the Share button in reading view when I encounterred the issue. Funny thing is once I saved and publish the report to web in edit mode, I go back to reading view and publish to web option finally show itself!
I hope this will help anyone who faced similar funny buggy issue

Hi. Can you tell us a bit more about the report? (data sources, special features like rls)
If you want to check it these are the documented limitations that will remove the Publish To Web option from a report.

Hope that helps,
Happy to help!
Thanks for offering a helping hand. The database is ContosoDW from Microsoft, I restore it to Microsoft SQL Server then connect to Power BI using import mode. I done some denormalization in sql server using VIEW, then import those VIEWs into Power BI. All my visuals are native, none of it are custom.
