"Upload PBIX" feature - add PBIP file format #25

Open Mike-Honey opened 7 months ago

Mike-Honey commented 7 months ago

On a workspace node there is a feature (via right-click) to "Upload PBIX". Currently it seems only ".pbix" format files can be uploaded. Can you consider adding support for the new ".pbip" format also?

Thanks for sharing this very useful extension.

is this request more about the dataset or the report? for the dataset, you will be able to open any TMDL file and publish it from the VSCode extension to any dataset in the PBI Service

for reports I dont know if here are APIs yet - need to check

If it is uploading .PBIX files, then it is affecting both data and report.

Here's a screen-shot of the feature I'm talking about.

I noticed via the Power BI web UI (app.powerbi.com) you can only upload a .PBIX file currently, so perhaps this is impossible for now.

if you are on Fabric/PBI Premium, it should be possible to also update the report only

with v1.5.0 which was released today you can also modify the files directly and publish them back to Fabric https://github.com/gbrueckl/PowerBI-VSCode/tree/v1.5.0?tab=readme-ov-file#microsoft-fabric

there are still some limitations but you could replace the .pbir file with your local one

does the proposed approach work for you?
