    Power BI report server prerequisites:

     

    1. Power BI desktop optimized for Report Server should be installed
    2. The report should be saved by this app as optimized for Report Server before uploading it to Report Server
    3.  While saving we should specify server URL and connection to the server should be established. So there's no option that we can generate this report for the customer.
    4.  The latest release of Power BI desktop optimized for Report Server was on May, which means that we can open reports only generated by May version of Power BI desktop
