Store PBIX template without data

[Anonymous]

Is there a way to store PBix template without data.

Since my imports occupy a lot of space , i was thinking to store my PBIX File without data on sharepoint and everytime i would want to use it i will refresh the query to get data.

Hi @Anonymous,

From this blog, we can know that:

A Power BI Report Template contains the definition of the Report (pages, visuals, etc.), Data Model definition (schema, relationships, measures, etc.) and Queries definition (collection of queries, including Query Parameters, etc.). In other words, a Power BI Report template includes pretty much everything that a Report file includes, with the exception of the data itself. 

Best regards,

I am fairly certain that is what "Save As" | Save as type "Power BI template file" does but I don't use templates that often.
