How to pass parameters from Angular to a Power BI Paginated Report (embedded in web app)?

Hi Revanth_B,

Thank you for your inquiry on the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

Based on my understanding, you can securely pass the UserID from your Angular application to an embedded Power BI paginated report. Please follow the approach outlined below, which may help resolve the issue.

1. Generate the embed information on the server side (for example, embedUrl and a short lived embedToken) using the Power BI REST API (Generate Token / Reports - GenerateTokenInGroup). Perform this operation from your backend using either the App‑owns‑data or User‑owns‑data flow.
2. Return the embedUrl and embedToken to the Angular client, ensuring that no secrets are exposed.
3. Embed the report using the Power BI JavaScript API and set the parameters via parameterValues in IPaginatedReportLoadConfiguration. For example: parameterValues: [{ name: 'UserID', values: ['1234'] }].

This is an API driven and secure method. Avoid placing sensitive identifiers in public URLs in production.

For report level configuration, ensure that the parameter name exactly matches the RDL parameter (case‑sensitive). Use Hidden (not Internal) for parameters that you set programmatically, as Hidden parameters can be set by the API. If a parameter is required, ensure either a default is provided or a value is always passed to avoid rendering errors.

If your paginated report uses SSO enabled data sources or a dataset with RLS, include datasource identities or identity blobs when generating the embed token on the server side so that RLS is enforced.
