    That does not show in the published reports it only shows in reports hosted on office 365.

      arashaga,

       

      Have you enabled the Get Data API? Please check link below about Get Data API.

      https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/power-bi-embedded-get-visual-data/

      https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/wiki/Export-Data

       

      Also note the limitation of export data:

      • Power BI only supports export in visuals that use basic aggregates. Export is not available for visuals using model or report measures.

      • Custom visuals, and R visuals, are not currently supported.

        Thanks for the reply. Can you provide a better example on the export API. I saw the code sample on the github but how do yo place it whithin the context? or how do you bind it to a button as an example to download a data. Also, on the giuthub page the link to "export data documentation" gives you 404.
