Hi,

I'm trying below mentioned request for export report with current values using API, The export is working fine, but when I open the exported pdf or png I didn’t see the values in report. I appreciate if somebody help me to solved this

curl --location 'https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/xxxxxxx-xxxx/reports/xxxxx-xxxxx/ExportTo' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer XXXXXXXXXXXX' \
--data '{
"format": "PDF",
"powerBIReportConfiguration": {
"identities": [{
"username": "XXXXXXXXXXX",
"roles": ["XXXXXXXXXXXXX"],
"datasets": ["XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXX"]
}
]
}
}'
Response was success and got the report blob and saved to local. After opening the report observed values are missing.

Does it work as expected when you export to PDF from the Power BI Desktop?
