I've been working with PBI for years, but it's always been in environments where either an IT administrator set up everything, or I set up a Cloud account with PBI Pro just for myself. Here's my situation:
1) I want to have a PBI setup for my employer: specifically for my boss, myself, and one other developer
2) We don't have any Microsoft accounts set up at all (we don't use Teams or Office, we are more of a Google shop, but we still use MS SQL for database work)
3) My understanding is that we could have 3 PBI Pro accounts (for $10.95/month/user) , where one other developer and myself could push up content to a common workspace, and have our boss interact with the results in the cloud (and possibly create some content as well)
4) When I did this myself, I had have a "KevinGoffOnMicrosoft.com" account, which I created so long ago, I don't even recall how I created it.
5) When I try to start this for my company, I can't get out of the box because the email I specified isn't a Microsoft account.
6) So here's my question: given my email is kgoff@mycompany.com (and the other two are their names, same domain), how specifically do I get started in creating a workspace and then adding the 2 other people as users?
7) Also, I had thought the cost for this was going to be roughly $33/month for the three of us. Is there also a charge for any kind of O365/Azure service? That was the other part I wasn't sure about: whether we could have what I described (common access to workspaces, where I could also set up a gateway for DB refreshes) for $33 a month (realizing the 1 GB limit), or if there would be other costs.
Sorry for asking a basic question - I've been creating content in PBI for years, just haven't tried to do a multi-person setup yet!)
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
