Cache mechanism in Embedded Report

eddywijaya — Thu, 16 Aug 2018 09:55:38 GMT

Hi All,

I noticed that report shown in https://app.powerbi.com have some cache mechanism when the user open it for the 2nd time and so on. Making it faster to load the report.

Can the Embedded report have the same user experience for this?

Hi @eddywijaya,

Please refer to PowerBI-JavaScript/wiki/Phased-Embedding-API#preload-warm-start. You can try it out.

Best Regards,

Hi @v-jiascu-msft,

Thanks for your reply, I have tried your solution and it considerably faster now.

But I applied (pre-defined) filter in my embedded report

Like this :

var  MyFilter = {
    $schema: "http://powerbi.com/product/schema#basic",
    target: {
        table: "Table1",
        column: "Column1"
    },
    operator: "Contains",
    values: "1234"              
}

report.on("loaded", function() {
    report.setFilters([MyFilter]).catch
    (errors => {console.log(errors)});
});

I tried to do the same with on('preload') but the data shown is not filtered

Hi @eddywijaya,

I'm afraid Preload wouldn't work with filters. Because it only requires a base URL.

>>>This function only requires the type of embedded entity, and a base URL for PowerBI Embedded, i.e. embed URLs without any specific URL parameters such as reportId, groupId etc.
