Needs VotesAllow Free Users to see Reports that have Row Level Security Roles (made by a PRO)

It should be urgent to allow Free Users to see Reports that have Row Level Security Roles.
I got the PRO Trial for my work account and created a Report intended to be shared with different groups of (Free) users, each group with an specific Role.
It turns out they cannot look into the Report now since PRO License it's required.
Does this means I need to create a single different Report with a different filter each? This seriously diminishes the usefulness of the tool. What's the point of the PRO license if anything the PRO does cannot be shared with the rest?

Please please, Microsoft, make this work! Discovered this issue today, after I enthusiastically put together a new dashboard for our management. Teams is a great resource for us all to communicate, and I want the relevant Teams to be able to access information from Power BI seamlessly, without navigating to the published App webpage

Seriously, its $9 / month. Do you argue the same with other subscription based microsoft/office products?

myself and manager have pro lisence but we cannot create a view for the CEO because he needs to have full pro lisence. if this is followed your product would suck in the industry in front of products like tableau or qlikview which have seperate viewing lisence at a cheeper rate for the higher ups who do not need to edit the data and only have to view the dashboards. Especially for a small to medium scale enterprize its mental and plain right stupid in investing for a pro lisence for all its employees. provide packages wherein so many employees can edit while the rest can view for eg. PLEASE FIX THIS MICROSOFT , YOU FINALLY HAVE A GOOD PRODUCT, DONT MESS IT UP
Thankyou.

Such a real problem for me right now. I agree that this simple dev app should be viewable for all in the Teams Tab- else what's the point?!

I was basically just told that paying a pro license to view reports is ridiculous so our company is not going be using this.

This idea should rise to the top of Microsoft's list if they truly want the Team space to be the outstanding collaborative tool they tout it to be.

At present, users with Power BI Free licenses cannot view Power BI reports embedded in their team's Teams Channels, EVEN if they report in question is hosted on a Premium Workspace. They are forced to view it direct on the Power BI Cloud Service.
This is not a good user experience, and cheapens the proposed value of the Premium product. Free users should be able to see (at minimum) Premium-hosted Reports embedded in Teams Channels, the same as all Pro users are currently able to.

should be the priority! the thinking behind this is absurd

For our organisation, it's not even a matter of cost.
We simply do not want to hand out report creation/distribution rights to staff who will only ever *need* to consume reports.
It creates a huge amount of governance, security and quality concerns for the entire service.

Just in addition, this *can* be done using premium licensing.
A few Pro licenses can publish, and Free users can consume.
But the thing is ... our latest quote came in at an entry level annual cost of > $50,000 while a Pro license for every staff member was just a fraction of that.
We are currently in the position of deciding if we can even use the service given the lack of governance in place.
