How do I publish a report from Power BI Desktop to Power BI Service?

To publish a report, open your file in Power BI Desktop, click on the "Publish" button on the Home ribbon, sign in if prompted, and select the appropriate workspace in Power BI Service. After publishing, your report will be available online for consumption, collaboration, and sharing.

What is the purpose of Role-Level Security (RLS) in Power BI, and when should I use it?

Role-Level Security restricts access to data based on user roles, ensuring that individuals only see data relevant to their region, department, or authorization level. You should apply RLS when you want one report to serve different audiences securely without duplicating reports for each group.

Can I edit a report directly in Power BI Service after publishing it from Desktop?

Yes, you can edit reports directly in Power BI Service, but changes will affect the live version seen by others (unless you make a copy). Editing online allows you to update visuals, add pages, or change report designs without needing to republish from Desktop.

What’s the difference between a Report and a Dashboard in Power BI?

A report is a detailed collection of pages with multiple visuals, built directly from a dataset. A dashboard is a single-page summary view created by pinning visuals from one or multiple reports. Dashboards are used for quick overviews, alerts, and sharing key performance indicators (KPIs).
