On powebi-models there is a enum defined as viewMode, which is used in the definition of switchMode. But the implementation is inconsistent
/** * Switch Report view mode. * * @returns {Promise<void>} */ switchMode(viewMode: models.ViewMode): Promise<void> { let url = '/report/switchMode/' + viewMode; return this.service.hpm.post<models.IError[]>(url, null, { uid: this.config.uniqueId }, this.iframe.contentWindow) .then(response => { return response.body; }) .catch(response => { throw response.body; }); }
As viewMode is an enum, this expression translates into
/report/switchMode/0 or /report/switchMode/1
It makes no sense since the API endpoint expects 'view' or 'edit', as seen in the code examples:
function _Report_switchModeEdit() { // Get a reference to the embedded report HTML element var embedContainer = $('#embedContainer')[0]; // Get a reference to the embedded report. report = powerbi.get(embedContainer); // Switch to edit mode. report.switchMode("edit"); } function _Report_switchModeView() { // Get a reference to the embedded report HTML element var embedContainer = $('#embedContainer')[0]; // Get a reference to the embedded report. report = powerbi.get(embedContainer); // Switch to view mode. report.switchMode("view"); }
So either the type definitions or the implementation should be fixed.
This is fixed.
swithcMode now takes an enum or a string.
Report.switchMode(viewMode: string | ViewMode)
