power bi embedded

Hi,

 

I'm trying to use power bi embedded but going through access issues.

 

I mananged to create the workspace and upload a sample report via powerbi-cli. I'm also generating the access token with 'powerbi create-embed-token'

 

The token seems to be valid. Below is the decoded version (from https://jwt.io/)

{
"ver": "0.2.0",
"aud": "https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api",
"iss": "Power BI Node SDK",
"type": "embed",
"wcn": "ProfilingOnline",
"wid": "0a29a0e2-5879-4be1-b11a-a1e16d0b7734",
"rid": "bc9204c4-52c3-40b0-b764-9cc54e2b16a7",
"nbf": 1496958040,
"exp": 1496961640
}

 

But when I test it on https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/code-demo/index.html# I keep on getting not authorised.

 

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi,

 

The problem was in the token, it was not signed correctly. It's working perfectly now.

 

Thanks a lot for your help

The decoded token looks good and the demo site works fine when I testing my own reports. Two things to confirm.

  1. Ensure the workspaceid(wid) is the correct workspace where the report you'd like to embed is uploaded to.
  2. Is there any RLS setting in that report?
