Reporting - Save a User-created report

*** Please note, this article refers to the All-new Reporting and Analytics. View the FAQ for more details. ***

In this article, we'll show how to save a User-created Power BI report. Note that Power BI does not have an ‘auto-save’ function, so we'd recommend that you select 'save' as soon as you start a new report and periodically select 'Save' to ensure you don't lose your work. If you try to close a report that has not been saved, Power BI will prompt you to do so.

• Save a report only if necessary
• Agree a naming convention with your team
• Review your reports regularly and delete any you no longer need
