Using a Cloud Deployment with the Power BI Service

You've spent the course of this book creating amazing reports using the Power BI Desktop client. Now, it's time to share those reports with your team, company, or customers. In this chapter, you're going to learn about the Power BI service and how to use it to do the following:

  • Deploy reports to the Power BI service
  • Create and interact with dashboards
  • Share dashboards
  • Secure your reports with row-level security
  • Schedule refreshes of your data

The Power BI service operates a freemium model. You can get most of the features in the free model, but when you want to share data with others and use team development, it will need to be upgraded to the pro edition. Other features requiring the pro edition are the ability to store larger datasets and more frequently refresh, to name a few.
