embed interactive report in a LinkedIn Post

 How can I get my PowerBI link previewed/embedded in a Linkedin Post?

 

https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=eyJrIjoiNTlhZGJlMGItMWUwNS00NmNlLTk1MWUtOGYwNTAyZmY1MjAyIiwidCI6IjkzM...

 

I have seen other data viz tools display interactive reports in a Linkedin post. See here: 

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6305460905094324224 

  

I would like the user to interact with the Power BI report in the LinkedIn Post.

 

I posted this in the Community forum and was redirected here. Microsoft owns LinkedIn, shouldnt be this hard :-)

    Something to clarify, the published to web Power BI report has to be in a <iframe> when embedding. It is the capacity of the forum that renders post in html. For example, Power BI community forum allows you to compose a post in HTML and render the HTML well. For linkedin post,based on my test, I don't find any similar capacity. I'd suggest you consult in the Linkedin Community.

      Thanks for the reply. I will search where the Linkedin community lives and I will post there. You do realize that both Power BI and LinkedIn are 'owned' by Microsoft. It beats me why I can't embed interactive powerBI report n LinkedIn while there are a number of other BI tools that are able to do interactive reports in a Linkedin post!
