According to this link, it's now possible to preview a new function in Power BI Premium: Paginated Reports (Reporting Services / rdl files).
When administrating my capacity settings, I don't see the option to enable "Paginated Reports (Preview)". Is this available in North Europe?
We only see the option to enable "Dataflows".
Answering my own question. According to Christopher Finlan: "it's still getting rolled out to all the regions worldwide. Give it another day or two."

Here is what I have done so far:
I have created multiple Power BI reports. Each report has multiple visuals.
I have published the reports into the Power BI workspace.
Report developers can access the reports via the workspace. Business users can access the reports via the application published from the workspace (containing the reports).
I want to understand what is the purpose/use case of using the Power BI dashboard when I already have the report/application capability as described above.
I know that dashboard allows to pin live report page or add visuals from various reports into one dashboard. When exactly is this useful?
Our team wants to monitor what Power Bi reports are being used/viewed by our stakeholders. Some of our stakeholders view our Power BI reports through the Power BI app in the browser and some through Microsoft Teams.
When we go to the Report Usage Metrics on the Power BI app in the browser, does it only show the views/report usage metrics for visits done through the Power BI app in the browser and not through Microsoft Teams? We are not sure but we would think it does not include it given the numbers we are seeing.
What are the steps we would need to take in order to see the Report Usage Metrics for the visits on the Power BI reports through Microsoft Teams?
It is not supported. You can track the idea here - https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=e5b27ae3-6c1b-4364-9b4e-b903cc68932e
Why Power BI service does not refresh data automatically. The forums mention that with Power BI Pro license allows to schedule refresh 8 times and Power BI Premium allows us to schedule refresh with a higher frequency. There is always an option to manually refresh the dataset/dashboard.
Does that mean Power BI does not provide the ability for live reporting.
We are not sure when was the last update for the dashboard.
Please suggest if we have some workaround. Iam using web api as data source.
Real-time reports are possible with push or streaming datasets.
DirectQuery is another possibility for frequently changing data.
What's your connection ? DirectQuery or import in your current report ?
Schedule refresh for your dashboard does not mean your data will refresh, you have to refresh your dataset also, and depending your source if you are using dataflows it will refresh your last dataset update. I'll suggest you to check out guy in the cube channel on youtube.
My company has bought a PowerBi premium P1 with report Server, but still we are not able to open shared reports without Pro.
I have tried using Power bi App to open the shared reports but is asking to get the pro licences. We all are on same mail domain, using same SQl data base(2014) and all have access to SQl data. Please suggest a solution for it.
You need to assign the workspace, where the reports are published, to a dedicated capacity (i.e. the Power BI Premium, that you paid for) to be able to share the workspace with non-Pro (i.e. Power BI Free) users. To do this, edit the workspace by clicking the three dots next to its name and select Edit this workspace:
And then at the bottom of the pane, expand Advanced section, flip Dedicated capacity switch to On and select a capacity from the list:
See more at Assigning workspaces to capacities.
When the workspace is assigned to a dedicated capacity, only publishers needs Power BI Pro licenses, while consumers can see reports even if they have only Power BI Free license.
How many reports can I create in one power bi workspace ?
How many datasources can I create over there ?
Details:
We are going to implement our own application and use Power BI Embedded features. Our app will own all data, thus our users will be working with reports on behalf of one master Power BI Pro account. Since every user could have multiple reports the question is how many reports can I store into one workspace ? I found some links where developers claim, that only 200 reports can be saved into one workspace, but I've not found any official doc on this. Currently we created one report in workspace and cloned it via saveAs function of Power BI JS SDK. So far I could create more than 1000 reports. So what limits are ?
UPDATE1
So far I reached limit in 1005 reports in one workspace. I can not create new one 1006s report neither from Power BI Services nor API call. Just got error "Unable to save the report" with some technical details. Once I removed one report I can create new one, but again can't exceed limit in 1005 reports.
UPDATE2
So when I save report (in Power BI Services ) got standard message box with error and link to "technical details", when click on it I set of ids:
Using embedded JS SDK got similar thing:
function GetCurrentReport() {
var embedContainer = $('#reportContainer')[0];
return powerbi.get(embedContainer);
}
const report = GetCurrentReport();
report.saveAs({name:"NewReportName1111"});
In both cases 500 error came from some APIs.
UPDATE3
It looks I reach limit, Fidler says:
some API throws ResourceLimitsReportCountExceeded exception.
Do someone have any ideas how to increase this CountPermitted ?
Recently I contacted Microsoft representative and asked all those questions and more.
There are questions and answers this person got, I believe, from Power BI product team:
What is max count of reports per workspace ?
ANSWER: You have a limit of 1000 datasets per WS, or 1000 reports per dataset. You have probably reached one of them.
What is max count of workspaces per one PRO user ?
ANSWER: Right now it is 250, will be increased to 1000 with the new workspace experience that is now in public preview
Is it possible to extend that limit of reports in workspace to some bigger number ?
ANSWER: Not right now
If using dedicated capacity Power BI Embedded App Services , can we manage such limits ?
ANSWER: These limits are not related to using capacity. You must purchase a dedicated capacity to go to production with PBI Embedded.
What version of Power BI API should we use ? Version 1 or Version 2 ?
ANSWER: There is only 1 API version- V1. The ‘V2’ you see is for the SDK of PBI API
Microsoft Power BI provides work-space to create or publish report from power BI desktop. Below are details of data-set and report capacity in Power BI service for free or Pro users.
Free users have a maximum 1 GB data capacity.
Pro users of Power BI Pro have 10 GB maximum capacity.
Pro users can create groups, with a maximum 10 GB data capacity each.
There is no limitation on number of reports but the total size of all the reports should not exceed 1 GB for free user and 10 GB for Pro user. Also, Pro user can create 10 GB work-space for each user.
Cheers.
If you are using a PowerBI pro account, each workspace has a 10GB storage limit. If you want to upgrade to premium, the storage space depends on the plan you choose. For more details see this : Storage in PowerBI
