Is there any traffic limitation for the web if I publish my report through web?

Hi all,

 

If I'm fine to share my report to the public through PowerBI service, is there any limitation for that? For example,  if there are more than 100 people using the web page at the same time, then the web page will crash. Please advice me, thank you!

@Anonymous - To the best of my knowledge, no. From: Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Limitations

Publish to web is supported for the vast majority of data sources and reports in the Power BI service. However, the following kinds of reports aren't currently supported or available with Publish to web:

  • Reports using row-level security.
  • Reports using any Live Connection data source, including Analysis Services Tabular hosted on-premises, Analysis Services Multidimensional, and Azure Analysis Services.
  • Reports using a shared dataset that is stored in a different workspace from the report.
  • Shared and certified datasets.
  • Reports shared to you directly or through an organizational content pack.
  • Reports in a workspace in which you aren't an edit member.
  • "R" and Python visuals aren't currently supported in Publish to web reports.
  • Exporting data from visuals in a report that has been published to the web.
  • ArcGIS Maps for Power BI visuals.
  • Q&A for Power BI visuals.
  • Reports containing report-level DAX measures.
  • Single sign-on data query models.
  • Secure confidential or proprietary information.
  • The automatic authentication capability provided with the Embed option doesn't work with the Power BI JavaScript API. For the Power BI JavaScript API, use the user owns data approach to embedding.
  • Admins can block public internet access, as described in Private links for accessing Power BI. In that case, the Publish to Web option is grayed out for your tenant in the Power BI admin portal.

@Greg_Deckler Since there is no statement regarding the traffic of PowerBI Web, so does it means that there is no limitation on that and I can invite 200 people to view the link at the same time?

 

By the way, I don't really understand 2nd point: 

  • Reports using any Live Connection data source, including Analysis Services Tabular hosted on-premises, Analysis Services Multidimensional, and Azure Analysis Services.

Based on the link above shared by other people, I found out that the data is actually live data right?

 

@Anonymous Correct, there should be no issue with scale. Especially not that small amount of viewers. The bullet you call out speaks to a very specific use case where you are using a Live connection (versus import for example) to an tabular cube.
