Download Power BI report in code
Sorry I misunderstood.
Currently, the only support for export-to-pdf is in Power BI Desktop and not in the Power BI Service. Unfortunately, there is no way to automate generating PDF files with Power BI Desktop. I do not think what you want will be possible until the Power BI team adds export-to-pdf capabilities to the Power BI Service and also support to call it through the API. This feature is on the Power BI team's roadmap but I have no idea when we might see this in preview.
Hi TedPattison
First of all thank you for your reply and info/code sample.
Excuse me, i rephrase, can you download a PDF/PNG from a report in C# from a report or dashboard?
