Is Paginated reports the right tool for this task?
Solution SageIn my opinion, using PowerBI Report Builder for the prepration of Paginated Report for PowerBI seems suitable for your task, given your words.
You should use parameters as you have suggested in your paginated report.
| You can insert your paginated report into your PowerBI report after uploading it on a workspace. |
Alternatively, if your deck of reports doesn't include visualizations like table/matrix which require user to scroll (or pgianted in order to show all of the contents), you may actually just build the report solely using PowerBI right away, and then export it online via PowerBI service as PDF.
I'm not sure if you understand what I mean. My question has NOTHING to do with Power BI Desktop. As far as I know, in power BI Desktop you can't create paginated reports. (I know there is a visual where you can import Paginated report into PBI Desktop report, but I think that is really not useful for me)
What I need is one single PDF file, with 20+ pages, with page numbers, headers and footers, some reports looped while passing some different parameter as an input, etc. Imagine deck of reports, PDF which you receive and on every page you have one table/chart. And all this needs to be created with ONE click.
