    rylach Sounds like a slight mix up in functionalities. You can download a PBIX from a dataset (as you describe) but that isn't what you want.

     

    What you want, is to open a clean Desktop file, go to Data Sources, and select the new option of "Power BI Service" This shows you the workspaces and datasets that you have edit rights for and you can select one.

    Build your new report off the dataset, and you can only publish back to the same workspace. This method will not create a new dataset, just the new report.

So, it seems that Power BI authors assume, that only people having full rights to read the data should be able to create their own reports, right ? If one does not have 'edit' right in a workspace - he can't see the dataset. If does have - will see all the data. 

 

Pretty bad. I'll submit a feature request for that.
