Power BI Report Server Doesn't Work With Edge

Power BI Report Server doesn't appear to work well with Microsoft Edge.  Items do not load and show blank spaces, this is not the case when view via Chrome.  This should be looked into since Microsoft is always pushing users to set Edge as their default browser.

 

Currently we are on the Sept 2023 release, but it has not worked right in Edge for awhile now.  We will eventually upgrade to Jan 2024, but I suspect that will not fix the issues, since nothing is documented about this in the release notes.

 

Please look into this Microsoft.

 

Thanks,

Richard

    Hi RDAngeloEB ,

    Microsoft Edge Legacy is no longer officially supported for Power BI Report Server since March 9, 2021. Similarly, Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 support ended on August 17, 2021

    You may need to update your edge browser to the latest version.

    Below is the official link will help you:

      This is the version of Edge we are on.

       

      Microsoft Edge Version 120.0.2210.144 (Official build) (64-bit)

       

      Is this Legacy?  From what I can find it appears this version is around the Nov/Dec 2023 timeframe, which would tell me its newer than the dates listed for ended support.

        Hi RDAngeloEB ,

        You can try this:

        • Clear your browser cache and cookies. Sometimes cached data can cause unexpected behavior.
        • Try accessing Power BI Report Server in incognito mode (private browsing) within Edge. This helps rule out any browser extensions or settings interfering with the functionality.
        • If the issue persists, consider using an alternative browser (such as Chrome) for your Power BI tasks until a resolution is found.

        Best Regards,

        Xianda Tang

    I don't have any problems with PBIRS in Edge browser. Please check if PBI RS portal is not running in Edge Legacy mode (using IE11 engine), it may be forced by company policies.

      Where do you check this?  I've looked through the configuration manager on the server and do not see anything about Edge Legacy Mode.

        No, you must look to settings of Edge browser on local computer, you can see in address bar, check if your browser not using legacy mode (Compatibility mode)
