Power BI Pro/Sharing Reports

Good morning all!

 

I have a few questions that I've listed below.

 

1) Is the only way to share reports built with Power BI (without having Power Bi Pro license) is to move the data into excel and share?

 

2) It seems that both users (user creating reports and user you want to share reports with) would have to have a Power BI Pro license. Is that true?

 

3) According to this link, VS Enteprise Subscriptions include Power BI Pro. I actually do have a VS Enterprise Subscription but it appears that I don't have Power BI Pro. I'm signed in and only see upgrade to Power BI Pro or try a trial. Am I missing something here?

 

Thanks!

    Hi VSTSadmin

    1) Instead of moving data to excel you can share your pbix file itself.

    2) If you wanted to share reports through Power BI Service then Yes both of you needs to have a Pro licenses.

    3) I have no idea about that...
