HI Holguinmora ,

Nope, current you can't use HTML element to achieve your requirement. Power bi embed contents have specific iframe tag and you can't do custom with it.  AFAIK, the common method is using plugin that you mentioned above.
If you mean embed power bi report which shares with 'publish to web' feature, it is possible.  You can directly copy the generated URL and paste into WordPress iframe.

    Hi,

     

    Is this for a WordPress.com blog? It seems not with installation of the iFrame plug-in but maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. Can someone please clarify? I didn't think WordPress.com blogs could enable JavaScript which is what allows for the interaction with the reports.

     

    The odd thing is I can use the block editor, embed it using the Custom HTML block, put in the iFrame code, see the preview to be exactly what I hope it to be, but nothing comes out upon publication, or even preview. Am I missing something given this is also how it was shown in the EdX course by Davidson College, with no problems?

     

    Thank you.

      Hi DashboardDude 

      So what exactly are you asking? Can you embed a PBI dashboard in Wordpress?  Yes you can if it's your own install or Wordpress on your own server.  Can't speak for Wordpress.com,I know they restrict a lot of things.

      Regards

        I was asking about WordPress.com that's on WordPress' servers, to see if PBI could be put on it and it doesn't seem like so the more I research. Thanks.
