Power BI report server prerequisites:
- Power BI desktop optimized for Report Server should be installed
- The report should be saved by this app as optimized for Report Server before uploading it to Report Server
- 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.
- 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
