Hi @powerbiexpert22 ,
You can consider generating an embed token for your embedded report yourself, then use the ‘use my embed token’ option in the official Power BI embed playground to simulate the appearance of your report after embedding.
Power BI Playground - Developer Sandbox
Generates an embed token for multiple reports, datasets, and target workspaces:
Embed Token - Generate Token - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn
You might also consider using postman to call the api
Postman is an API platform for building and using APIs. Postman simplifies each step of the API lifecycle and streamlines collaboration so you can create better APIs—faster.

Thanks for the reply from AntonioCarl and suparnababu8 , please allow me to add the relevant information:
Hi @powerbiexpert22 ,
Based on my research, if you need to embed PBI reports into your desktop/application, you may need to use embed for customer or embed for organization.
It is recommended that you use Embed for your customers, App users don't need a license
Ensure that Power BI Embedded is set up in Azure to allow applications to authenticate and render Power BI reports

Note:
You can try using RLS associated with Power BI Embedded to ensure data security and privacy.

There are Azure costs associated with using Power BI Embedded, depending on capacity and usage.

Hi @Anonymous
how can i practice embedding report using API (not using iframe) meaning power bi embedded?
To embed any report you need at least PRO licence. Every user who is going to see embeded report also needs a PRO licence - that's main disanvantage.
So, for developing purpose you need PRO license and premium workspace aswell. But, for viewing user's won't need PRO license. Just if they have o365 email id. It's enough to view embedded report.
Hi
I think there is no power bi embedded in this forum.
Here you can find documentation- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-embed-secure
Hi @suparnababu8 ,
I want to embed power bi report using power bi embeded and see how it works, how can i try and practice this on my own?
Power BI gives three trial periods for basically everyone I know. Go to https://app.powerbi.com/ on the right hand side click on your user and have a look if you're eligable to get one.
