Exporting Copilot Smart Narrative Text from Power BI

I've developed a smart narrative in Power BI utilizing its built-in 'Narrative' feature. Unfortunately, I'm encountering difficulties as it doesn't seem to offer an option to export this text directly. Could anyone suggest an alternative approach to achieve this?

    Hi ilitzkyd ,

    Please export to PDF in Power BI Desktop rather than Power BI Service. Please note that before exporting to PDF, be sure to adjust the Copilot narrative to allow all of the content to be displayed, as the PDF drop-down bar is not effective.


    If that doesn't work, then perhaps you'll just have to copy directly inside Power BI Service.

    Hi ilitzkyd ,

    After my testing, there is really no way to export the content on Power BI Desktop. You have the option of exporting the report as a PDF and then copying it on the PDF interface:


    Or publish the report to Power BI Service and then replicate it in Power BI Service:

    Then again, please select Custom, this can be copied directly in Desktop.

      Hi Dino,

      I have tried the PDF solution on the PBI service to continue using Copilot narrative, but once I export, I get the following error message on the narrative pane:

       

      Please let know of any other possible solutions
