Page breaks excel export while exported from power automate

Anonymous — Mon, 16 May 2022 06:39:16 GMT

I have developed power bi report builder report and have conditional page breaks. When exported to pdf it should have page breaks and when exported to excel it should not. It works fine when I run and download report manully from services.

When I run the report through power automate and generate automated reports page break does not work in excel export.

Please advise

Thank you for response, I have put below condition in power bi paginated report

=IF(Globals!RenderFormat.Name="EXCELOPNXML",FALSE,TRUE)

So when I export report form service and export to excel it works fine. But, when generated from power automate it apply page break. seems above condition does not work 😞

Hidden expression in report builder does not work when reports generated through power automate(flow ) job. Not sure what setting I am missing.
