PowerBI Embed For Your Customers Flask Run in Python

[rem-e]

I am having a problem understanding the directions in this Microsoft tutorial as I am relatively new to working in PowerShell and working with APIs. "https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/embed-sample-for-customers?tabs=python#..."

In step 8, .12 it says to execute a flask run? But I am not aware of how to do this.

Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated. I am using Python and Windows PowerShell.

Thanks!

Hi @rem-e ,

Flask is a web framework. When you have completed the configuring the settings of this report, you need run a service on your machine so that the client or users can send request to your service to get the response(report).

Go to the Python environments directory where you deploy your service and CMD with

python -m flask run

For more details you can refer these links.
