Updating Service (Teams) by using Desktop

[Noah]

Good day to everyone.

I am using PBI Service for the first time. My experience has been solely using Desktop to design, edit, and publish to a SharePoint with a select few Pro users.

At a new job now, I need to use the Desktop version (no license and no chance at getting one) to update a report in a Teams folder, which I have never done before.

I have already setup the report on Service, but learned that DAX functions are not possible (yet), which is why I'm using Desktop version so I don't have to use Excel to push for DAX.

So, the silly question: What steps do I need to take to edit the report on Desktop and then publish/update the Service one?

Thanks to anyone that helps me with something so trivial 😅.

Hi @Noah ，
To update your Power BI report using the Desktop version and publish it to the service, please follow these steps:

• Download the Report from the Power BI Service:
  
• Then open the downloaded pbix file in Power BI Desktop and edit it as you see fit:
  
• Lastly, save and publish the updated report to Power BI Service again:
  

  Best regards,
