Publish report to Power BI Service
When we are finished designing our report, we can publish it to our workspace in Power BI Service. When we publish a report, Power BI Desktop packages our report and data, including all our visualizations, queries, and custom measures, and then uploads them to Power BI service.
Note: We cannot share directly from Power BI Desktop. We must publish reports from Power BI Desktop to the Power BI service first and then share.
To publish the report, follow the following steps:
Step 1: Save the Power BI Desktop file.
Step 2: To publish the file, on the Home ribbon tab, from inside the Share group, click Publish.
Step 3: In the Publish to Power BI window, select the workspace in which we want to publish the report.
Step 4: Click Select.
Step 5: When the report is successfully published, we will get a success message that contains a link to our report in our Power BI Service. Select Got it to close the Publishing to BI window and return to our report in Power BI Desktop. From the report page, we can select the provided URL to go to Power BI service and see our new report.
Step 6: Close Power BI Desktop.
Step 7: In the Power BI service, in the Navigation pane (located at the left), review the contents of our workspace.
