Embed files into Power Bi Report
Is there a way to embed files into Power Bi, similar to the below image? or something similar?
Hi StuartSmith ,
Sorry, there is no direct way to embed an Excel file directly into a Power BI report.
If you are in Power BI Desktop you can only do this by adding a text box and filling it with hyperlinks to the file, but this does not look good enough.
In Power BI Service, you can create a Hyperlink to the file and add hyperlink to an image tile in the Dashboard page, again, it is not possible directly in the Report page.
For more information, you can refer to the link.Add images, videos, and more to your dashboard
I did a simple test to complete this step on the Dashboard page, which may be more suitable for your needs.（This is a tile, click on the image above to jump to the corresponding file.）
Hope it helps,

I guess I could create a Hypelink to the file and add hyperlink to an image, but wondering if you can directly embed a file.
