Anonymous — Tue, 10 Nov 2020 09:16:04 GMT

Hello,

Please can someone know if it's possible to automatically install power bi report server on-premise using powershell or cmd or others ? if yes, is it possible to do it with a configuration file like we do with sql server ?

Thanks 🙂

Now I just plan to install one
But the goal is to have an application where someone can ask a report server.

Yes, it is possible an supported. If you run setup with /? you should get an idea of the parameters to run an installation in silent mode. Once the server is installed, the WMI APIs can be used to configure it. There are also powershell commandlets that wrap those apis so this can be done programaticaly:

Hello gboreki,

Thanks for your answer

I already tried it with this command PowerBIReportServer.exe /q /ACTION=INSTALLER /INSTANCENAME=PBIRS

but it doesn't work. Do you have an idea about parameters I can use ?

Thanks

Hi,

As Anonymous said, when you execute :

PowerBIReportServer.exe /?

A windows opens containing all the parameters.

So I tried this command and the installation succeeded:

PowerBIReportServer.exe /quiet /norestart /log "C:\Tmp\pbirsint.log" /InstallFolder="C:\Program Files\PBIRS" /IAcceptLicenseTerms /Edition=Dev

Hope it will help you 🙂
