dataset access

Is it possible for me to allow a user to access a dataset on Power BI? I want to show certain charts on a report and allow the users to make more visualizations themselves, so that their analysis can be more flexible. Any kind of help is welcome.

I believe that you want to create a group workspace. Click the down arrow to the left of My Workspace in the Service, create a new group, add your data set to that group, etc. Oh, and make your user a member of the group of course.
