publish via git
is there any way to store pbix files on git and publish it (script) via git and not from power bi desktop?
thanks!
You can upload your .pbix onto github. However, it's not possible to directly open a Power BI report from github and publish it onto Power BI Service without using Power BI Desktop.

Just an update: It is now possible to directly publish a PBIX file to the service using the REST API, so you could conceivably do this for a PBIX file hosted on Github or any other online source.
