Explanation

Power BI dashboards do not automatically inherit the theme from the reports whose visuals are pinned to them. To apply a custom theme to a dashboard with minimal effort: first, save the current theme from ReportA as a JSON file (B), then upload that JSON file to DashboardA via the dashboard's theme settings (E). Option A (publishing ReportA) is unrelated to transferring the theme to the dashboard. Option C (publishing to the Community gallery) is a sharing action, not a dashboard theming action. Option D (creating a custom theme manually from scratch in DashboardA) would require more development effort than exporting and re-importing the existing JSON.
