Can you use Pro to write reports with Power Report builder

[Anonymous]

We are new to the Power BI world and we are trying to see couple of things.

1. Can you use the Power Report Builder with Pro license ( development of course)?

2. Can you deploy from Pro to Premium environments. Dev/UAT would be in PRO and Prod would be in Premium. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

For your first problem, you can use Power Report Builder to create paginated report on premises without any liscenses.

However, if you want to upload this paginatedreport to workspace except myworkspace on Power BI Service, you should have a Premium license.

For your second problem, Pro is based on user and Premium is based on capacity. If you want to use both of them, you should purchase them singlely.
