Chapter 8: Publishing and Sharing
A tremendous amount of work has gone into the report that we've created so far, from importing the data to creating the data model and calculations, to designing and formatting report pages. The report is looking good, but the value of the report is minimal if only the report author has access to it. To maximize the value of the report, the report must be shared with other members of the organization. This chapter will familiarize you with the Power BI service and demonstrate how to publish your finalized report to the service and share it with others.
After reading this chapter, you will have a basic understanding of the overall layout and features of the Power BI service as well as how to publish and share reports created in Power BI Desktop.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Getting an account
- Introducing the service
- Publishing and sharing
