'Publish to web' is where it should be:
Report/Dashboard - File -Publish to web
Thanks,

- GilbertQIt should be there. If it's not your Power BI Administrator has disabled access
Go to Workspace your repot exists in ->File -> 'Publish to web'
Mind that this is totally insecure, anyone who gets hold of the URL can access it on the internet
