PowerBI Pro License Doubts - AutoRefresh and Dashboard Sharing

Hi all,

 

I want to buy PowerBI Pro license but I've some doubts.

Imagine this scenario:

  • We can only use the auto refresh 8x per day but if each user click on the refresh button it will make an update of data?
  • Considring that I have 2 reports on my disk:
    • Report A
    • Report B
    • I want to send report A to my organization and the other to my customer.
    • Can I share the report A on PowerBI Service and ensure that my customer don't see report A using PowerBI Pro?

Thanks!

    Hi SaCvP125,

     

    • We can only use the auto refresh 8x per day but if each user click on the refresh button it will make an update of data?

    Yes. 

     

    • I want to send report A to my organization and the other to my customer.

    There are several ways to share reports with your organization members and customers. You could have a look at below articles:

    How should I collaborate and share dashboards and reports in Power BI?

    Share your Power BI dashboards with coworkers and others

     

    • Can I share the report A on PowerBI Service and ensure that my customer don't see report A using PowerBI Pro?

    If you don't share report A with customer and give access to them, they won't be able to view report A even they sign in service with Power BI Pro license.

     

    Best regards,
