I noticed the same issue today. When I go to export the report freezes and a transaprent white overlay shows up over the entire report. I am using powerbi embedded. I just noticed the issue today, so not sure how long it has been like this. I am going to do some more testing and hopefully find&nbsp;the issue. If anyone finds a solution please advise. Thanks!&nbsp;

I'm failing exporting the data as excel as well. As a workaround, you can export the data in a csv file, in my test, it&nbsp;works now.I have escalated this issue internally and would post back if there comes any update.&nbsp;

Eric_Zhang&nbsp;Thanks a bunch for the update. It seems to be working with csv as expected now. I also am curious about exporting when using an iframe within a webview. There seems to be a disconnect when using the export function in a webview and it doesnt make that call properly. Everything else in the webview works perfectly. If I use the iframe in the browser without the webview it works perfectly. Basically, nothing happens when you use the export function in a webview. Thought I would touch on it since I have tried a couple of times to raise the issue, but never found an answer. Something with the script not getting called when going through the webview and the iframe.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks!&nbsp;

Yep. I can confirm as well CSV export is working.&nbsp;For the WebView, I was thinking something wrong with my app. Now, I see that you guys cant use it as well. For Web View I had export broken from the beggining. Oh, guys, you can't belive how much pain we get because of export not working in theweb view. I had to build a complete, separate application just because of this...&nbsp;Could be good to know if there any work planned on this as well..ThanksNick
