remove "report usage metrics report" showing on embedded application

I am dealing with an embedded application that is getting reports via this C# repository method

 

                using (var client = new PowerBIClient(new Uri(_powerBiSettings.MainAddress), tokenData.tokenCredentials))
                {
                    var reports = await client.Reports.GetReportsInGroupAsync(_powerBiSettings.GroupId);
                    return reports.Value
                                  .Select(rep => new ReportSummary {ReportId = Guid.Parse(rep.Id), Name = rep.Name})
                                  .ToList();
                }


However in the list of reports, I am getting back a report called "Report Usage Metrics Report" which is a power bi default report for showing metrics of how many people are using my reports.

 

The way I am removing this report is adding the linq statement.

                    return reports.Value
                                  .Select(rep => new ReportSummary {ReportId = Guid.Parse(rep.Id), Name = rep.Name})
                                  .ToList();

Is there some other way to remove this report from the list?

 

Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

According to the documentation here, it seems we can't filter it out in the first place. So we need to filter out the "Metrics reports" after we get all the reports.

When I click "View solution in original post" it doesn't do anything.  I really need to know how to filter out the "Metrics reports" after I get all the reports as suggested above.  Please help.
