Power Apps Integration with a BI Report: can we automatically pass in system values e.g. report ID
We have a requirement to embed the same Power App I am building in a number of BI reports . Would be good if the we could also pass in metadata such as report id or report url as well as the fields ...

4 years agoI poked around a bit but the "PowerBIIntegration" object only seems to have a ".Data" attribute. There's no trace (as far as I can tell) where the data came from. Maybe if you examine the app code download it may reveal itself. This here URL is less than helpful

Yes I agreee . Even If I was to unpack the canvas app , I am not sure how I could get to any info in the data object. It is an interesting idea tho. I wonder if we could calll on jQuery to see if we can extract details from the report.
I have seen docs covering adding the BI Report to canvas app and also a model driven app, but this does seems be moving away from what should be a simple requirement.
