Unable to add Power Automate refresh button

Hi team

Need your help. I deploved a report in Power BI and trying to refresh the report using Power Automate.

I have added Power Automate for Power BI Visual but it is unable to load Power Automate after click on Edit. I am getting blank screen only as inserted. Could you please help me to resolve the issue?

 

 

Thanks

Naresh

    nareshupadhyay did you publish to a workspace you have access to at app.powerbi.com? You need Power BI Pro license or greater for this.

        I have a similar problem, yesterday it worked fine for me, but today I'm going to add a Power Automate button and it won't let me edit its properties, name or color and it runs nothing for me

        Has anyone solved it yet?

    Hi nareshupadhyay ,

     

    Please follow this tutorial and try again?

    Trigger flows from Power BI reports | Power Automate Blog

     

    These are some known limitations, in the official documentation:

    • The user running the flow within the Power BI report needs to have permissions to run the flow. Grant these permissions through direct sharing by the user or by sharing to an Azure Active Directory group.
    • The Power BI visual only functions with flows in a tenant's default environment. Any flow created with the visual is created in the users default environment.
    • Additional manual inputs to the button are not supported at this time.
    • Create flows that you will use with the Power BI button trigger directly within the Power BI report. Do not go directly to Power Automate to create these flows as the trigger will not have access to the data fields necessary for creating the flow.
    • Power BI data is sent to, and processed in, a geography where the flow is deployed.
    • The Power Automate visual isn't supported for PaaS-embedded scenarios, nor in sovereign cloud scenarios.

     

     

    Best Regards,

      Thanks Stephen for sharing the artical!!

  • Hello

    i am having the same issue. Did you find a resolution?  When in desktop and clicking edit on power automate it loads to a blank page as in your screen shot although the flow I created works and is visible in service.  Pro user account.  Same issue if select a new flow and occurs in all reports and flows in desktop I have created.  Any help would be great.

      Same here. A colleague of mine same tenant same license has no problem with it.

      Do i have to allow PowerAutomate to PowerBI first?

       

      In the sign on logs everything looks ok.

        He had an older version. With the newest version (PowerBI from Microsoft Store) he has the same problem.
