Hi kehamparam1,

It seems like you are searching for programming functions to export power bi content as same as power bi export features.

Export the data that was used to create a visualization 

As Greg_Deckler said, current power bi seems not to release these features to Power bi REST API.

If you still want to achieve these, I think you need to trace and analytic the power bi export features to find out the 'request url', header, correspond request tokens, and parameters.  Then you can simulation these operations based on scripts or programming languages. (notice: these operations obviously complex than developing on rest api and they required you are familiar with using programming language/script on web development)

In my opinion, I'd like to suggest you submit ideas to add more export APIs.
