How you use Power BI may depend on your role in a project or on a team.

How you use Power BI may depend on your role in a project or on a team. For example, you might primarily use the Power BI service to view reports and dashboards. Your coworkers might make extensive use of Power BI Desktop or Power BI Report Builder to create reports, then publish those reports to the Power BI service, where you can view them.
