Add a widget to a Power BI report
- 4 years ago
Hi, Cheryl
By adding a tile to your dashboard, you can place an image, text box, video, streaming data, or web code on your dashboard.
You can paste or type in any HTML content, as a tile, to your report or dashboard. Enter the embed code manually or copy/paste from sites such as Twitter, YouTube, embed.ly, and so on.
-
From the Add tile window, select Web content > Next.
-
Add information to the Add web content tile window:
a. To display a title above the tile, select Display title and subtitle and enter a Title and an optional Subtitle.
b. Enter the embed code. In this example, we're copying and pasting a Twitter feed.
c. Select Apply.
Here is the related document hope it can help you.

Cheryl , could you please breif a bit more about your requirement?
Hi truptis , Thank you for reviewing my message.
Here is the website where the report is posted: Oregon Data for Decisions (oregondatadecisions.org) and here is the published PowerBI: Microsoft Power BI.
I want to add this widget to my report as a visual. I've never seen the widget, so I don't know how big it will be. It will probably replace a visual on page 1, unless it makes sense to have it be bigger, in which case I'd probably rearrange things and/or add a page.
From what I've read (e.g., https://p3adaptive.com/2018/11/dynamically-embedding-web-pages-in-power-bi/), what you need to do is make a calculated column in a table. I'm not very familiar with DAX or HTML, so I don't know what the calculated column should include. The examples have a column with the name, the url, and the html that references the url column. I've tried following the examples, but I just keep getting messages that what I've entered isn't in proper DAX syntax. Just putting the widget html I was given doesn't work.
The examples all have the HTML within Iframes. I don't know if I need to add that or not.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

As far as I can tell, this is how to do the opposite of what I want to do. this is about embedding a PowerBI report into a website. I want to add an html visual into my PowerBI report.
But thank you for trying.
