Appreciate your timely repsonse and advice !!.
Hi. Ok, once you have your data model, you need to publish to a collaborative Workspace at Power Bi Service. The people creating or editing reports must have PRO licence. You can Manage Permissions of the published Dataset to grant read access. That access allows them to find the dataset from Power Bi Desktop or the DataHub at Power Bi Service. Both ways allow users to build reports from facts and dimensions.
Consider that it's most recommended using Power Bi Desktop and get data from PowerBi Dataset because that way a file with the development is created. You can persist, version and control that file. If someone creates directly from Power Bi Services and it's deleted or created at the Personal workspace and then quit the company.... the report will be lost.
After they finish the development at Power Bi Desktop, you can create different workspaces for the end users in many ways like department, teams, squads etc.
I hope that helps,
