    HI ehamrick,

     

    The contents which premium users shared can be viewed without pro license.  For reports which shared from other license, receiver also need pro license.

I guess the question then becomes: If my organization has an EM2 license which gives premium capacity to my report and that direct query report is shared on the Power BI App on SharePoint's web part modern page, will it work for other who want to only view the data?
