PBI report creation in portal

[Anonymous]

All,

I know how to embed existing PBI reports in a portal.

However, I am trying to figure out whether the creation of a PBI report can also be done in a portal. So, essentially, instead of having to use PBI Desktop or the report editor on powerbi.com, the portal user can create the PBI report using, say, an embedded version of PBI Desktop/Reporting Editor in the portal. The portal is an in-house developed platform.

Thanks,

Wilco

@Greg_Deckler  That wil allow you to create visuals 'on the fly' using an existing report/embedded session.

@AnonymousI think this is what you are after... https://github.com/microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/wiki/Create%5CEdit-Report-in-Embed-View - Note that I have not tried the creation of reports myself, but I think this will do what you are after.

I'm not aware of that as a feature of Power BI Embedded, but that would be the place to check.

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your response. I have been checking the PBI embedded resources, but they all talk about embedding existing reports. I have not come across creating one using an embedded feature. Hence the reach-out to the community.

Best,
