Hey guys!

 

I need your help please. I want to create a button. And on the button click the following should happen:

1.) Filter 1 is applied

2.) PDF Report is created

3.) Filter 2 is applied

4.) PDF Report is created

 

So that after the button click I have to standard reports withouth doing anything by hand.

Is this possible?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous,

 

If I understand your requirement correctly that you want to export the report to PDF by clicking the button in Power BI?

 

By my tests, I'm afraid that we may not achieve your requirement currently in Power BI. The action of the buttons in Power BI only have three options:

  • Back
  • Bookmark
  • Q&A

You could submit your idea in Power BI ideas Forum and add your comments.

 

Best  Regards,

Hey!

 

oh ok!!

Is there any possiblity to programm something in power BI by myself so that I can maybe achieve this?

 

Another option for me would be to create 3 Sheets that are not visibile. Is there a possibilty to export only the not visible ones to pdf?

I'm afraid that you cannot program something in power bi to trigger the feature export pdf.

 

In addition, by my tests, we only could export the pages which are visible.

@v-piga-msft  am currently facing the same issue, since I am embedding the Power BI Report over to Microsoft Teams as a tab and in there we do not have an option for exporting in either PDF or PowerPoint, the option only comes in Power BI Web Services, any suggestions for a work-around ??

 

A button would be nice to have!

 

Thanks.!
