Sharing dashboard - Pro user to free users
- 4 years ago
Hi, some1else
With sharing, whether you share content inside or outside your organization, you need a Power BI Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) license.
Your recipients also need Power BI Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) licenses, unless the content is in a Premium capacity.
You can refer to the following methods to share your reports and dashboards:
1. First, you can put the contents of the workspace into premium capacity:
Purchase Power Bl Premium: https://docs.microsoft.com/power-bi/admin/service-admin-premium-purchase
Assign a workspace to a capacity: https://docs.microsoft.com/power-bi/admin/service-admin-premium-manage#assign-a-workspace-to-a-capac...
2. If you want to share it with users outside the organization, you can try this method:
https://docs.microsoft.com/power-bi/admin/service-admin-azure-ad-b2b
The guest user must have the proper licensing in place to view the content that you shared.
There are a few ways to make sure the user has a proper license: use Power BI Premium, assign a Power BI Pro license, get a Premium Per User (PPU) license, or use the guest's Power BI Pro license.
3. If you don't want to buy Premium and Pro licenses, you can try publishing to the web.
However,when you use Publish to web, anyone on the Internet can view your published report or visual. This method is not safe.
Publish to Web: Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Hi some1else
When sharing reports or dashboard the other users would need to either have a Power BI Pro license. Or you would need your App Workspace to be in a Power BI Premium Capacity which would allow you to then share the dashboard/report with a free user.
I've now realized this, misread the information on documentation. For testing purposes I've shared the report with a Pro user, but all of the visuals show the message "View details", without any data/graphs being shown. Any ideas?
