RE: source control

For sure... all "serious" products have a way or another to perform this.
Guys, let's talk seriously... be "serious".

RE: source control

I would like to thank everyone who responded to my twitter and linked in request to vote for this very basic feature request, so basic it was missed by Microsoft. This idea was getting 1 vote every 3 days and now it got 46 votes in 48h, which clearly shows its a must have.
Take care
Emil

RE: source control

It is happening to me daily, I developped and published reports, then my key users start creating and updating reports on the portal, then if they need any work on measures or aditional data i have to download and apply the updates then push. I would like to work on the same published pbix and just hold key users from editing while working on it.

RE: source control

The ability to use source control or at minimum the option to merge desktop files is very important for the development of solutions using powerbi

RE: source control

Please prioritize this feature. As others have mentioned, this is mandatory for professional development, especially when doing collaborative work.

RE: source control

This would also provide a solution for those requesting collaborative report development.
