Version control
Our organization operates under a Microsoft P1 license, without access to Fabric. Git integration is limited within our P1-backed workspace, Editing is fine, but version controlling and real collaboration is limited with P1 access. Any thoughts on how effectivily can use the pbip file ?
or the best strategies to enhance version control and enable real collaboration among developers in different department. What options are available to us?
Thank you in advance.
Are they going to be working on the same semantic model? or they will be creating their own reports and semantic model? The approach will be different. However, here is a good place to start.

mjoseph111 You could leverage OneDrive. It has built in version control. I've seen people save their PBIX files as templates, PBIT and store those in OneDrive to do basic version control. Also, check out this video:

Can you elaborate what "collaboration among developers in different department" in your use case?
As far as i know, P1 doesnt limit collaboration. You can still use azure devops, branching etc. and leverage pbip and version control in git repo. What are the limitations that you are encountering?
Also, sooner or later you will need to move to F-sku, as P-sku is not being offered anymore. Once your current P sku contract ends, you can only continue on F sku.- mjoseph111Helper II
Do you have a guide or documentation I can follow? I haven't used Azure DevOps or branching before, but I'm interested in trying it out.
"collaboration among developers in different department" means , We need to collaborate with developers from different departments located in various regions.- Tutu_in_YYCSuper User
