Export to PDF format for each Filter value in Power BI

We have "Location wise Salaries of ABC company" report.
It contains 2 report blocks as shown in "Report - All Locations" image.

We are using filter on LOC dimension. There are 3 values of LOC.
Our requirement is -
A report in PDF format for each LOC value in the report.
We should be generated 3 PDF reports automatically by script/or any other way.
Is there any script in Power BI to do achieve
Thanks in advance.

Hi @ml_a790 ,

 

Try use Power BI REST APIs to export report and filter a report using query string parameters in the URL.

Refer to:

Microsoft -- PowerBIReportExportConfiguration 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-url-filters 

 

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

I can not open Python link.

I understood generating PDF reports from paginated reports.

How to generate each PDF for each LOC in paginated settings? Please advise.
