damn... we all just planned to upgrade to PPU licence.... it'a a nonsense

I completely agree with your opinion on power bi service being so intricate and cumbersome for business users, i do not however see this as a big improvement, maybe for occasional users that might need access to a report once in a while, but for distribution for me, the apps are still the way to go. Love you videos by the way, no nonsense, short and to the point. Thanks!

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

I am seeing this as opening an excel file in sharepoint or wherever it is at, without the need to install anything. What i am not saying is that power bi standardise reports should be distributed this way. A BI platform made for business users should be the way to do that. Hopefully it makes sense :)

@MartinOhlsson86 18 дней назад

I assume this only works for Import-mode reports where all data resides in the PBIX file? Not sure I like this idea since it will be harder to govern what reports and report-versions exists in the company now.

@CurbalEN 18 дней назад

It works with live and direct query too. This is perfect for personal reports or adhoc analysis :)

@user-rv2kw5ez3l 9 дней назад

Do u mean i can upload my file to sharepoint and i can open it directly , and what happened to data file

@pallavi_joseph 21 день назад

There's a caching issue in PowerBI and SharePoint. For example, after editing a file in SharePoint and saving it, my colleague makes additional changes online. When I reopen the file, despite seeing their changes in SharePoint, sometimes it only shows the version I saved previously. However, downloading the file gives me the updated version

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Yes, the files are not synced so it makes sense you would need to download it again. To distribute Power BI reports , power bi service is way to go still.

@timosborn73 18 дней назад

Interesting, I wonder if the caching issue is solved if users do a "hard reset", which is ctrl F5

@NearbyCactus 21 день назад

I just tried this, works well. One observation though - the data is as at the time of the last refresh & I can see no mechanism to initiate a refresh. So to be useful, there needs to be a process around that. Might be perfect for historic snapshot scenarios.

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Yes, looks like a viewer for now, lets see how it develops!

@rosswaterston 22 дня назад

I'll experiment with this. So far no joy, but it may not be in our region yet. PPU should be ok for access. The main thing will be if it can work with thin reports. It's early days though and often these features come out through the Pro and PPU before hitting capacity.

@CurbalEN 22 дня назад

Fingers crossed ! PPU is fine already :)

@nomad9296 21 день назад

Big companies tend to have an E5 licence that includes PBI this allows access to the service and also allows users to build their own reports and share them. Admin can give E5 users access to workspaces and datasets to build reports. I wonder if E5 licence allows you to share in Sharepoint and one drive. Thanks for the updates 😀

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Good point ! E5 license does have a power bi pro license included :)

@EBAN4444 20 дней назад

That's why you get a premium capacity or now fabric and setup an app for the workspaces, then use audiences for different access. Then the end users just have 1 url to go to the app which has all the reports they need access to.

@CurbalEN 20 дней назад

Not all reports need to be distributed to wide audience. Treating a Power BI file as any office file is the way to go imo

@2010appra 19 дней назад

We already publish Powerbi reports in sharepoint but need pro license to open the report so nothing exciting.

@CurbalEN 19 дней назад

The news for you then is that they support direct query and it is enabled by default! It wasnt before :)

@kahhengyeong7947 21 день назад

Seems a good feature but I think we still need Power BI service to refresh the model. The info on the refresh/updating part seems quite unclear.

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Yes, it is a viewer. Maybe in the future?

No sweat, that the new PRO way to develope reports, a hole other level. But the Onedrive feature is also great news, but needs thought regarding governance...

@MartinBentancour 22 дня назад

So, even when you pay at least 5k/month for premium capacity, users need a license to view a report?? That must be an oversight, right?

@CurbalEN 22 дня назад

That is what I am hoping!

@VenkatesanVenkat-fd4hg 22 дня назад

Can I use Powerbi on cloud....can you plz comment me on this?

@CurbalEN 22 дня назад

You certainly can. Google “power bi service” to learn more!

@yeyoremix 20 дней назад

My points of view on this: This adds an extra layer of risk to permission management. As people who shouldn't be accesing data from a report that is saved in a shared location could access it now by just opening the report. Although that risk existed before, except now it's increased to users who don't have PBI Desktop installed. The big question is, can external users access it as well if they are invited to a shared location that holds one of this pbix files? I never saw PBI services as an user environment, I always thought it was a developer one. And distribution was always meant to be done trough embedded reports or links you can embed on sharepoint. Maybe Microsoft is not clear explaining this to users but tha'ts the feeling I get from how the product is designed. Anyways, this will be great to share adhoc reports that you are not sharing as a published report and should help keep workspaces cleaner. I can see why you are excited!

@CurbalEN 20 дней назад

You need read permissions to view the report , so you should be ok! Power bi service is meant to be the way to distribute files, hopefully they will reconsider this! And yes! That is one of the reasons why i am excited :)

@DataHacker 21 день назад

meh... I thought we may finally have display folders for tables. Or maybe ability to reorder columns in data view or something else exciting :D

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

😂😂 That would be nice too!! But this is great to open files like any other office file format imo at least!

@DataHacker 21 день назад

@@CurbalEN I guess there is some use for it. It does not hurt. But in my org everyone got used to current offering. There are just so many ways to make the report available. If someone cannot use PBI site or PBI app or Android app or Teams tab, then I don't know :D They probably will not understand the report anyway

@christimbers2006 21 день назад

And if your report uses row-level security (as in all reports surely?) then it doesn't open either!

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Reports you keep in sharepoint and onedrive most likely wont have RLS imo

@johnskilly 21 день назад

How has it taken them so long to do this? On their own platform? Power BI has a long long way to go

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Probably it didnt fit the purpose until now?

@DriekWorks 22 дня назад

I don't see the problem here; it is about the pbix/p/t, so it is about report or model creation, not sharing. Most creators would have a pro/ppu account anyway.

@CurbalEN 22 дня назад

It is about sharing/storing reports in sharepoint and onedrive. For enterprise companies, most users have a free licence only :(

@pabeader1941 21 день назад

That has to be an accident. I bet they assumed that PRO or better would available automatically. Somebody goofed on that one.

@CurbalEN 21 день назад

Fingers crossed you are right!

@hulltl 20 дней назад

But this is quite dangerous as you can now have any user create any standard of report.. not great at all and in the med term very high risk to a business. Yes open reports that are authorised on prem capacity subject to all the normal governance but not a free for all.

@CurbalEN 20 дней назад

Not sure what you mean, users can create any report they want with power bi desktop?

@@CurbalEN I can agree with that I suppose. It would be great if it could handle multi-GB files - really like the ability to have that functionality.
