Advocate IIIs Microsoft responsible for the external visuals in its library?
Most likely thier visuals don't work in Power BI Report Server (RS) since they use newer API than RS supports.
We would recommend that you should ask external developers to send you private build of visual that supports RS.
Microsoft is currently considering an update for RS that will resolve such issue for all of custom visuals.

DSG-LuxDear Ignat,
many thanks again for your answer! Sure, I understand that sometimes you have to switch APIs but honestly do you think I can include private builds of external developers on a strategic BI roadmap in our company?
I am happy to hear there is an upcoming new RS release since the community is really keen to hear about it and some open questions exist for the upcoming release.
best regards and thanks again,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
I think you might rely on private build so far while Report Server is in process of upgrading.
Once Report Server is updated and released you will be able to switch back to public versions of extenal custom visuals.
