Hi!
On the latest report server version 1.18.8683.7488(build 15.0.1113.165), the powerbi object does not contain some of the necessary informations.
We need it to identify the update type received from powerbi environment. When we try to use the powerbi.VisualUpdateType, our code fails, because the powerbi object behaves strangely.
The question is, how can I find the powerbi.VisualUpdateType if the powerbi object looks like this? Can I find the VisualUpdateType enum somewhere else?
It appears that you are encountering issues with the Power BI object on your Report Server, specifically related to the powerbi.VisualUpdateType property. The behavior you're describing could be due to various factors, such as the version of Power BI being used or potential compatibility issues. Here are some steps to help you troubleshoot and find a solution:
Check Power BI Version: Ensure that the version of Power BI you are using is compatible with the report server version. Incompatibility could lead to missing or incorrect properties.
Update Power BI and Report Server: If you are not using the latest versions, consider updating both Power BI and your Report Server to the latest available versions. New updates often include bug fixes and feature enhancements.
Check for Documentation: Consult the official Power BI and Report Server documentation to see if there have been any changes in the way you should access the VisualUpdateType or if there are any alternative methods provided.
Review Code: Review your code to make sure that you are accessing the powerbi object correctly. Ensure that you are using the appropriate API or method to access the VisualUpdateType. There may have been changes in how this information is accessed in the latest versions.
Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a solution, consider reaching out to Microsoft Power BI support or the community forums. They may be able to provide specific guidance for the version you are using.
Alternative Approach: If you are unable to resolve the issue with the powerbi.VisualUpdateType, consider looking for an alternative way to achieve the same goal. Depending on your specific use case, there might be other ways to identify the update type from Power BI reports.
Remember to always work with up-to-date software and consult the official documentation for the most accurate information. Additionally, keep an eye on release notes for both Power BI and Report Server to stay informed about any changes in functionality or API.
