Integrate Dynamics 365
I dont think it is possible to view BC reports inside Power BI. I worked on a project that used BC and we had to re-create the reports in Power BI by using the BC Connector. Alternatively, there are built-in BC Power BI apps you can try.
If you're trying to view existing reports from Dynamics 365 Business Central in Power BI, here are a few ways to do it:
Use the built-in Power BI connector:
- In Power BI Desktop, go to Get Data > Online Services > Dynamics 365 Business Central.
- Sign in with your credentials and select the environment and company.
- You’ll see a list of available tables and reports you can load directly.
Publish Business Central reports to Power BI:
- In Business Central, go to the report or page you want.
- Use the "Open in Excel" or "Analyze in Excel" feature, or export the data and build a Power BI report on top of it.

Use APIs or OData feeds:
- Business Central exposes data via OData endpoints.
- You can connect to them using Get Data > OData Feed in Power BI.
Let me know if you're trying to embed existing RDLC reports or if you're working with custom extensions – the approach might change slightly.
