Upload template to Service without data
Hi all. Everything I've read about .pbit template files is that you can create a full report less the data, distribute it, the recipient opens it with their data source in Power BI Desktop, and you...
To change a report data source from local files to PBI Service data or to change tenant where data is located can be done, but NOT with PBIT.
Instead build your report connected to local files, then delete all the data sources and save as PBIX. You can then connect that PBIX to any tenant that has the same data model in it.
Do not save as a template or you will lose your report after data is removed.
