    Thanks almazfm for identifying the root cause of this issue. I can reproduce this on my test server.

     

    flopi I have mention this to the people I know on the dev team and apparently this issue had already been identified and a fix will be included in a new build of the September release which they hope to release something in the next few days.

Hi d_gosbell,

 

I had an embeded link in our internal system (e.g. https://myreport/reports/powerbi/myreport?rs:embed=true ). After the upgrade the link didn't work any more and I've been forwarded to the main page (e.g. https://myreport/reports). My virtual folder is defined as Reports.

I've checked the hint from almazfm and tested it on my box (single PBRS installation). After changing the link to  https://myreport/Reports/powerbi/myreport?rs:embed=true it worked. Unfortunately, this workaround doesn't work on scale-out environment, since the virtual directory is a part of the load balance address i.e. https://myreport/reports must be change not only in PBRS but also in the load balance configuration. Moreover, every user has saved the link of the Report as a favorite link. If I would change the URL in all configurations, all personal favorites are invalid. For this scenario, I didn't find any technical workaround!

d_gosbell: With the September update a breaking functionaliy has been released. Request you to address it to the developers and release a hotfix, because 99% of all PBRS-Installations are affected and need to be reconfigured

 

Thanks 
Bobi

    Hey d_gosbell ,

     

    I've successfully tested the version that has been released today. 

    Thanks to you and the envolved developers for fixing it. Keep up improving Power BI

     

    P.S. I've read that Excel export was released, as promised it for the september release, but I wasn't able to check it. Good job.

     

    Regards

    Bobi
