PowerBI report embedding in Blazor

bluisana — Fri, 18 Aug 2023 00:06:52 GMT

Hello.

I am a VERY long-time .net developer. In my older web applications, I usually used SSRS with it's web services integration to seamlessly integrate reports directly into my applications. I am starting on my first Blazor application and am hoping to use PowerBI as my internal reporting solution for this application. I have designed a few really nice report with power bi desktop and published them to my azure tenant with no problems.

The PowerBI licensing is really confusing. Do I need a Power BI embedded license (700/month minimum, ouch) to embed reports into my Blazor app? It seems like I may be able to get away with 1 premium license for myself (as the report writer and developer) and then the organization that uses the app will be able to access it? I just want to make sure I am not going to have to ask a company to fork up 1k/month or $20 per user before I start down this path. I have been looking at examples like these.

Hi all,

if you want to provide access to your organization users, each user of your organization, who wants to view reports within your app, needs a PowerBI Pro license, and the "owner" of the report needs a pro license too, to publish it to the BI service in the cloud. One can use a PowerBI Embed license if either all users of your organization needs access to the reports in your app or you want to have access to your external users (like customers).

Hope this helps.

Regards

Wolfgang
