Tile embed disappears in 4-5 seconds

We are facing a strange issue in Power BI Embedded where the embedded tile just disappears after 4-5 seconds and comes back after referesh;

 

Here is a config;

 

{"tokenType":1,"accessToken":"<Token>",
"permissions":7,"id":"<TileID>","embedUrl":"<TileEmbed>","type":"tile",
"dashboardId":"<ID>"}"

 

We retrieve the embed token using Microsoft APIs. I can share that procedure if required. 

 

Here is what happens (Sorry I cant embed this video since its not a you tube); https://dzwonsemrish7.cloudfront.net/items/2A3s0G0l0E0r1W2V021K/Screen%20Recording%202018-05-07%20at...

 

 

P.S.

 

  1. This error only occurs when we make a change in underlying report (which tile is referring) in PBI Desktop and publish.
  2. This error remains for nearly 1-2 minutes are making a change and publish and then disappears
  3. When I kept console ON, I realize the visual disappears after getting this error;
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 (Unauthorized)	
wabi-west-europe-redirect.analysis.windows.net/powerbi/metadata/models/<ID>/?modelOptions=Default&packageId=<ID>

Any help is appreciated!

The messgae should mean the original tile content can't be found, which I think should be caused by the update.

 

 

By the way, how you generate the Embed Token?

The method for the Embed Token should be:

Generate Token

Which would require the Power BI AccessToken.

 

Just from the error message, it seems to be the generated token is not valided for the updated tile.

 

I will share the testing results from my side.
