How to embed pbix which is connected to redshift?
I don't think Power BI Embedded is currently supporting Redshift
Its a bummer :( given lack of tools to easily bulk import tools for MS Azure SQL or SQL data warehouse I had to look into redshift (where there are tonnes of great tool for bulk upload) but then now pbix embed is not supported for aws redshift.......

This solution is still needed. The Redshift connector was announced here:
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-connect-redshift/
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/building-power-bi-reports-on-top-of-amazon-redshift-data/This last article, dated Aug 1 2016, said the Redshift connector doesn't yet work for "Power BI Gateway or PowerBI.com for refresh scenarios, which will come in the next couple of months."
These threads have essentially the same issue:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Integrations-with-Files-and/Scheduled-Refresh-from-Amazon-Redshift/m-p/50587#M4404It's been six months since "a couple of months" was promised. Any news? This is a big issue for my application, where I need to do scheduled refreshing in the PBI service, just like any other database.
