For any groups that want to share the developed reports on PowerBI to users who do not also have a PowerBI Pro license, it is necessary to add the workspaces hosting those reports into the ‘Premium Capacity’ license. There is currently no formal process for this. The best way to go about this is to request the Office 365 team for premium access via a Service Now ticket at which point it will run by IT senior leadership. Once cleared by IT senior leadership, O365 admins can turn on the ‘Premium Capacity’ on the specific workspace. Any dashboard on this workspace can now be shared with users who may not have a pro license themselves.
