    I have finally managed to get everything workgin now. I saved the Power BI file  (.pbix) on my desktop and uploaded it to Power BI Online. I added the embeded URL to the Visio Visual in Power BI Online and the visio diagram is now working. 

    This only works in the Chrome browser, but not Microsoft Edge.

    Thanks for the help!

Hi Anonymous - did you ever manage to get this working in PBI Desktop?
I came across this thread as I have exactly the same issue; my Visio visual does not appear in desktop (nor does the demo visio file). In both cases the Visio visual does appear in PBI Online when I enter the embed URL but that doesn't help as I still need to build and configure the report in desktop. 
Any help appreciated!
