System.InvalidOperationException

a0m02e1 — Wed, 15 Aug 2018 16:12:09 GMT

I am trying to use PowerBI Embedded resource from MS Azure to embed an report on client application. I am following steps delineated on this link : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embed-sample-for-customers#embedding-for-your-customers

Following are the system details:

MacOS High Sierra (version 10.13.6)
Power BI web version is used to create a workspace
Visual Studio mac version: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/mac/
PowerBI pro license subscription
MS Azure subscription

I have generated group ID and report ID from PowerBI workspace using web version (and not desktop). I also registered a new app in azure and generated an application ID for it. After providing all the required information in web.config file, when I tried generating token using AppOwnsData git repository (https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-Developer-Samples) getting an error as shown herewith.

Is there any configuration issue? Is it possible to do all these steps on MacOS? Any help to resolve this issue is appreciated.

Hi @a0m02e1,

Did you build your website?

Seems there are more details in the error message. Can you share it?

Did you have a web server like IIS?

Maybe this is helpful.

Best Regards,

Dale

Hi @v-jiascu-msft,

Thanks for your response.

I am following steps mentioned in the documentation for embedding PowerBI report. The git repository had prebuilt application which I am trying to configure for my Azure and powerBI subscription.

While it is just a local test application for now with no server capability, I may extend it in future. I am trying to understand if this is a macOS compatibility issue or something else!

Here is the exception stack trace :

Hi @a0m02e1,

This project has been build up. Why did you generate token manually?

Did you build the project? (compile the project).

Best Regards,
