    Hi Lacodia,

    I'm not sure I understand how to filter to a user specified row and launch a UWP button form within PowerBi, or if I will need to have the user select an item within the embedded report, firing a javascrip event to load an external uwp button's datacontext?

    I'm not familiar with UWP button, so I may not understand the requirement above totally.  With PowerBI-JavaScript library, you can also handle the report loaded/rendered or pageChanged event without having the user select on an item within the embedded report to interact with the uwp buttons. :smileyhappy:
