    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You may not tick the second option " Allow users to build new content using the underlying datasets".

Read more about creating reports based on datasets from different workspaces. That is to say,  the recipients need Build permission for the dataset instead of read permission.

     

    Best Regards,

    Amy

If you have corporate capacity available (which is a paying feature) you can add your workspace to the corporate capacity. There , local tenant users do not need a license. If you do NOT have that, you can send the user the PIBX file (and thus NOT use the power bi service but use power bi desktop).

 

Otherwise, the user does indeed need a PRO license to access the report. No way around it! 

 

EDIT => i did not see your note, nevermind my reply 🙂

Just deselect the 'allow... ' and share it.
