This feature is still not available in the PBI report server. Could you pls share any updates on the availability of this feature and any workaround to acheive this capability in the mean time?

    We have investigated this further and it is unfortunately not a trivial implementation for PBIRS due to some technical challenges. It has always been the stance that the Power BI service may get these features that are unique to them when using Power BI reports and this is unfortunately one of those scenarios.

     

    If it is critical then we suggest using the Power BI service to do these exports.

     

    This feature may come to Power BI Report Server in the future, but it will not be part of the May 2023 or September 2023 releases,

      Hi Petebro,

       

      In our organization, we implemented PBIRS in order to setup folders, with permissions for certain roles within our organization, to have access to certain reports that report builders can distribute to. I understand, with the service, each report must be shared out to groups manually which is why we have not used the service.  The problem of not having the "export with current layout" on PBIRS has halted our implementation of this.

        I totally understand your frustration, but this is a limitation that will exist for the near term in Power BI Report Server. It is on our backlog of features, but there are items above it. One suggestion is to add this to Ideas (powerbi.com). This may be able to adjust priorities in the future.

      Is it possible to appear in the January 24 version, or is there a relevant roadmap that we really need
