Add data Power BI Embedded on the fly

I want to use power bi embedded in my web application.
My application will generate a new data set for each user's query. And will use powerbi to do the visualization.
Is it possible for power bi embeded to add data on the fly such that each user can use the same page with different data set?

I don't think it is possible to add data on the fly as Power BI REST API does. When using REST API, you can create reports basing on the dataset via the Power BI Service UI, however there's no such UI in Power BI Embedded, so I don't see anything making sense to add data on the fly in Power BI Embedded.

Regarding "each user can use the same page with different data set", you can use RLS in Power BI Embedded
