Advocate IPower Automate Environment / Power BI
Microsoft just announced an update to the Power Automate visual and the functionality to choose environment is now there: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-automate-visual-ga-embed-workflows-directly-within-your-power-bi-reports/
Advocate IHi,
I found a solution.
Step 1 - get the "ID" of 2nd environment(the one that is not default), basically when you select it on the Power Automate page your URL will look like this https://make.powerautomate.com/environments/xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx/flows
Step 2 - Open the Power BI Report at Edit mode on browser (it will not work on Power BI Desktop)
Step 3 - Go to the trigger of Power Automate inside of report and Edit, it will show you the list of flows on default environment.
Step 4 - Right click and "Inspect" to see the source code of the page, search for "Environment", in my case it's the 5th ocurrence. It's a iframe with a long address.
It starts with:
https://xxxxx.flow.microsoft.com/en-US/widgets/manage/environments/Default-yyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyy/flows?.....
Step 5 - Change the the part between "environments/" and "/flows" to the 2nd environment (got on Step1). It will refresh the iframe automatically and then you will see the list of flows on 2nd environment.
TESTED ON EDGE, I believe it works for Chrome and others.
If works for you give me a LIKE 🙂
Thanks for the solution, it works properly for myself. However, my colleague is still directed to the default environment when they open the same report and click the same button. Can this solution be applied the same to other users as well?
