    Hi Caiss,

     

    Above all, I would suggest you download the PowerBI-JavaScript and try it yourself. We can create reports on the online demo but we can't save them due to it's a public demo.

    1. It's possible. APIs are general interfaces, so we can use them in many programming languages. There is also a Create mode API. Please refer to power-bi/embedtoken/reports_generatetokenforcreateingroup

    2. Yes, they can create reports. Actually, this is the App Owns Data mode. One master count act as a Power BI user.

    3. Yes, RLS would be the solution. I would suggest creating some App workspaces. So the dataset could be separated and the reports created by the users won't crowd together.
