    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Refer to the following steps required to use the Power Apps visual object in a Power BI report.
    1. Download the latest version of powerbi desktop
    2. Add the Power Apps visual object to the report and set the data fields associated with it.
    3. Select the environment in which you want to create the application
    4. When you are done, save and publish the application in Power Apps so that you can see your application in the Power BI report.

     

    For detailed step-by-step instructions, please refer to the following official documents and related notes:

    Embed a new Power App in a Power BI Report - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

    Power Apps visual for Power BI - Power Apps | Microsoft Docs


    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and related operation screenshoots. Looking forward to your reply.


    Best Regards,
    Henry

Hi v-henryk-mstf 
I know this post is old but I too want to know the answer.
Your comment did not answer the question the original poster asked.

The problem is:
I have a power bi report that I have embedded a power app into (all works great).
Now I want to deploy the power bi report utilising the power bi deployment pipelines BUT there doesn't appear to be an option to change the location/source of the powerapp (as it moves through DEV->TEST->PROD).

So the question is, how do I deploy my PowerBI report ensuring that as it moves through environments, the embedded powerapp is also pointing to the correct environment?? (e.g. PowerBI in prod -> Embedded PowerApp should also be in the production environment) 

At this point I think it has to all be done manually (which is a real pain in the bum) and breaks best practice.
Cheers
