Link for Power BI report for clients

[Hayoung]

Are there a link for viewing the Power BI report in the Power BI Service for clients who do not have any Power BI licenses?

HI @Hayoung 

If you're not using Power BI embedded (see Power BI embedded analytics overview - Power BI | Microsoft Learn ) all users require a licence to view a Report shared with them.

If published to a Pro workspace, viewing access requires a Pro licence or PPU licence.

If published to a PPU workspace, viewing access requires a PPU licence.

If published to a Premium Capacity workspace, viewing access reqires a Free, or Pro, or PPU licence.

The only alternative to give access without a licence is to use "Publish to web" (See  Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn) However this places to Report on a publically facing website and should not be used for proprietory or sensitive information.

Hope this helps
