PBIE Report Visuals API Endpoint

KieranNZ — Wed, 13 Apr 2022 20:21:00 GMT

I understand that we can embed individual visualizations, however getting a list of visuals on a report or report page is not straight-forward. This is the current workaround as I understand it:

Would it be possible to get an endpoint for visuals? ie.

/reports/<reportId>/visuals

/reports/<reportId>/pages/<pageName>/visuals

Hi @KieranNZ ,

Please review the following links and check whether they are what you want. Hope they can help you resolve the problem...

Get pages and visuals

let pages = await page.getVisuals();

Getting The IDs Of All Visuals In A Power BI Report Page Using The Power BI Embedded Analytics Playground

Get visuals from Power BI report through API Call

You cannot get them with the REST API but you can with the Javascript API

If you did the following to embed your report
var report = powerbi.embed(reportContainer, config);
You could then do the following PowerBI Javascript API call to get all of the visuals on the first page of the embedded report and store them in a MyReportVisuals variable to do whatever you want with.
report.getPages().then(pages => {
            pages[0].getVisuals().then(visuals => MyReportVisuals = visuals)
        });

Best Regards

We dont have direct rest api end point for report visuals.

Ref - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/overview/powerbi/embed-visual

Refer this to get the visual id - https://dataap.org/blog/2022/03/10/export-power-bi-report-visual-as-a-image-rest-api-automated-way/

Thanks
