Embedding video into a Power BI report

[leekarensl]

Is it possible to embed a video inside a Power BI report. How do I do this? I have tried it with a sample YouTube video but all I got is a black screen and the video isn't playing.

Hi, @leekarensl 

When you add a YouTube or Vimeo video tile to your dashboard, the video plays right on your dashboard.

1. From the Add tile window, select Video > Next.

2. Add video information in the Add video tile window:

   a. To display a title and subtitle at the top of the video tile, select Display title and subtitle and enter a Title and an optional Subtitle. In this example, we'll add a Subtitle, and then convert it to a hyperlink to the entire YouTube playlist.

   b. Enter the Video URL for the video.

   c. Add a hyperlink for the Title and Subtitle, so that your colleagues can view the entire playlist on YouTube after they watch the embedded video. To do so, under Functionality, select Set custom link, and then enter the URL for the playlist.

   d. Select Apply.

3. On the dashboard, resize and move the video tile as needed.

4. Select the video tile to play the video.

5. Select the subtitle to visit the playlist on YouTube.

thanks for your response, this is much appreciated. I actually want the video(s) to be embedded on a report rather than a dashboard as it is to be shown alongside other dimensions and metrics. So the source of the videos has to be part of the dataset.

Thanks for responding, your help is appreciated. This looks promising, am trying to get the data engineering side to store some sample videos in the azure storage for me to test. I will revert whether this is successful or not. Thanks again.
