Failed loading report when using Power BI Embedded : error 403

[DirkVr]

I started by looking at the AppOwnsDataStarterKit. I have incorporated the AppOwnsWebApi in our own back-end. I have created there a end-point which which I could retrieve the datamodel of a service priccipal profile (Get EmbeddedViewModel) 

Our front-end is built using Angular. In this Angular application I am calling the endpoint "Get EmbeddedViewModel)" (which nicely gives back a list of reports and also an embedtoken. This info is used to fill in the EmbedReportConfiguration. I am only interested in the first report.

       this._powerBIServiceProxy.retrieveEmbeddedModel().subscribe(vm => {this.viewModel = vm

            var report = this.viewModel.reports[0];

            this.reportConfig = {

                type: 'report',

                id: report.id,

                embedUrl: report.embedUrl,

                accessToken: this.viewModel.embedToken,

                tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,

                permissions: models.Permissions.Read,

                viewMode: models.ViewMode.View,

                settings: {

                  layoutType: models.LayoutType.Master,

                  background: models.BackgroundType.Transparent,

                  panes: {

                    filters: { visible: false },

                    pageNavigation: { visible: true, position: models.PageNavigationPosition.Left }

                  }

                }

            }

When executing this code, I am getting an error message like this

I was hoping to see some more info in the technicalDetails, but... bad luck:-)

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Problem is solved. Issues was that the embed token was not correctly filled with the reports that I wanted to load.

Hi @DirkVr,

AFAIK, the HTTP 403 Forbidden response status code indicates that the server understands the request but refuses to authorize it.

I'd like to suggest you extract the id of the embedded contents and corresponding tokens to test on the power bi embedded playground to confirm if the same issue appears:
