    Donato Publish to Web came out of Preview, and based on the blog it appears that it now requires a Pro license to use.

Hi Donato,

 

Based on my test, "Publish to web" button is also available for the Power BI free users. But it will not be supported or available in below scenarios:

 

  1. Reports using real-time data sources.

  2. Reports using row level security.

  3. Reports using Analysis Services Tablular hosted on premises.

  4. Reports shared to you directly or through an organizational content pack.

  5. Reports in a group in which you are not an edit member.

  6. "R" Visuals are not currently supported in Publish to web reports.

In your scenario, please check if the report meets one of the limitations listed above. For more information, please refer to this article: Publish from Power BI to the web.

 

Also you can do a simple test, please get a sample report in Power BI Service via Get data->Samples->Retail Analysis Sample. Then please check if "Publish to web" button is available when you open the report like below:

 

 

Besides, from the link which Anonymous provided, we can know those features are only available for Pro users when we use Publish to web feature:

 

  • Same rich authoring tools available for free
  • One-click publish to web
  • Copy and paste the URL
  • Simple editing
  • Elegant, cross-device support
  • Always up to date

 

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

 

Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu

    Hi ,

    Many thanks! Using the  sample report I can use the "Publish to web" option.

    I´m using a ODATA connection to a cloud DB, is it a real-time data source?

    Hi Qiuyun

     

    I have the same issue as the previous user, I only have the option now to save as a powerpoint available. I did run the same test but even the sample dataset does not show the option to publish it to the web.

     

    Do you know why that is happening and what could solve the problem?

     

    Thank you in advance

        franciscoalles Did your Power BI Admin disable the use of "Publish to Web"? This is an option that can be turned off due to it's volitility related to company data.
