Embedded tiles sometimes not rendering

Anonymous — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 13:51:32 GMT

I am using the embed API to embed dashboard tiles on a web page. Quite often the tiles are rendered with no data presented in them. They are all blank (white) - just the title is showing. Does anyone else have the same problem or know of any solution to it?

Having same issue. Tried to embed a tile but only tile header is displayed, tile content is not displayed. If I look at the html for the iframe, there also the data is missing! To test, I just went to the original tile that I had created in my PowerBI account and copied the content html from there and pasted it onto my custom web page's ifrmae. And it shows up fine. So the reason is just in the part where the visualization data is fetched.

By any means can there be any CORS issue? I tried the same on IE11, Chrome, Firefox; everywhere got the same issue. Really an urgent requirement. Please help!!!

When I connect azure database in Power BI and try to rendering tiles in my web application tiles are not rendering. Only headers are rendirng and in tiles there is only white space and even in html content there is not any data except svg tags.

I am new to Power BI and I will appreciate any help here. Many many thanks.

Facing the same issue. Has this got anything to do with setting up of IFrame height and width? I'm trying to embed Power BI tiles in a UWP app. Any help on this would be great.

Looking at the number of people facing the same issue, I would assume it's a bug.

Good news is embedding report still works! You can use that until the tile bug is fixed.

There is a problem m facing while embedding reports too. I have followed the documentation but the iframe shows a progress ring continuously and the report never loads. Did you face a similar issue? Anything I might be missing out?

Did you bind postActionLoadReport function with your iframe's onload event? Refer to the code in GitHub.

I have followed the code in GitHub. I still get a continuous progress ring and report doesn't load.

It's working in my case. Can you please share your code snippet?

This issue appears to be solved now. I have not changed any code and tested it a couple of times. The tile renders with the graph. I no longer see only headers with white space. I think the issue is solved from the Power BI side.

I can confirm that it seems to be working now.

What changes did you do to fix it ? I still get the issue for MAtrix and Table tiles. Other pictoral tiles work fine. Also I see this issue only in IE 11 .It works fine in Edge and Chrome
