Opening PBIP projects without a pbip file
Leah clones a Git repository that a Fabric workspace syncs to. The repository contains a SalesReport.Report folder and a Sales.SemanticModel folder, but no .pbip file. How can she open both the report and the semantic model for editing in Power BI Desktop?
- A.Open the model.bim file in the Sales.SemanticModel folder
- B.Open the definition.pbir file in the SalesReport.Report folder
- C.Create a new .pbix file and import both folders
- D.She can't, because Power BI Desktop requires the .pbip file
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Open the definition.pbir file in the SalesReport.Report folder
Why: The .pbip file is only an optional shortcut to a report folder. Opening definition.pbir in the report folder opens the report and, when it has a relative reference to the semantic model, the model as well. A model file alone isn't how Power BI Desktop opens a project, and there's no import of project folders into a .pbix.
