Power Automate Button Not Appearing

Hi,   I created a Power Automate button on a PowerBI Desktop report so that user can refresh the dataset manually. They access the report via a PowerBI tab in a Teams channel. This has been working...

We are experiencing the same issue in two separate reports for a customer. Most probably it is related to a recent MS update.

Solved it via HTTP request.

We replaced a trigger with Power automate button with a HTTP GET call to start the flow. Added it to a random empty botton to the canvas.

(downside - it is openning an empty page from the request, but refrehs is working)

      Hi lbendlin ,

       

      I'm using Power BI Desktop version 2.130.930.0 (June 2024) and the report and power automate button were working fine on 13th August but did not work on 15th August or since. Just to clarify, if I open the report in Desktop I can see the button and I can click on it and have confirmed that the power automate flow has run this way today. However, when I or others access the published version of the report via Teams the button is invisible.

       

      Thanks,

      Matt

      Power Automete (Flow) button gone bad today on Monday. 

      It doesn't show when the report is embedded to SharePoint. (desktop and service are fine)
