It takes a lot of time to download report with large dataset. For ex. 750MB of data can take 5 more hours to be downloaded, or if it is distributed team then some members are not able to download report at all to modify. In case if you don't have empty (.pbix) file or template (.pbit) it's a trouble ... is it possible to add download template feature from the Power BI Report online?

We are currently looking at adding capabilities like these, stay tuned!

Update 4/11/2023: moving this back to under review as it was removed from our plans.

This seems way more useful than downloading the .pbix. Please make this happen!

This would be great for allowing IT to keep a copy of the published reports so we can recover accidentally deleted content for report writers.
