Opening pdf files from power bi

[harshadrokade]

HI,

I have Student-year level data in power bi. Every student+year will have a unique pdf file which I want to open from power bi dashboard. I will add the links for the pdfs against the Student name+Year in power bi database & use the same to provide a link to the user to oen the report. The new pdfs will keep getting added every year.

The problem is hosting these pdfs. I cant upload them on SharePoint as external users cant access files uploaded on SharePoint. Is there any way through which I can keep uploading the files on Power bi hosting platform which client can access.

Pls also let me know if there is ny other solution to this. Thanks a lot

Thanks for your help @Idrissshatila . It doesnt have information about how to host the files. It mentions 'This way I can use the report server folder to host the documents' but not aware how exactly the same can be achieved.
