Options for accessing SSRS reports through Power BI interface (power BI service)

kadingo As mentioned SQL 2016 is the first version that supported the connection of Power BI to SSRS. If all you are doing is tying your SSRS reports to the Service, this solution may work for you. It isn't a good one for Power BI Reports in SSRS though as the reports open in the Desktop for every end user. The full solution (PBI Reports on premises and links from SSRS to Power BI Service is found in the Power BI Report Server)

In any case, you cannot deploy SSRS reports by themselves to the Power BI Service. You CAN pin certain visualizations (Chart, gauge, etc) to a Power BI Dashboard. This means, that your SSRS report must contain an element that can be pinned to the PBI Dashboard in order for the end user to be taken to the report. Depending on what your needs are, this could be a solution, but to say that there are strong ties between SSRS and PBI Service right now would be mis-leading.
