Allow to pass parameters to an iframe for Power BI Embedded

[paulvega]

Scenario: We have a website with Power BI embedded analytics and details provided by SSRS reports. On the top you could see the parameters for the reports (multiple value, single value, all). It would be great if we could pass (securely) parameters to power bi embedded so that the datasource only shows certain data. Imagine that I would have to share this dataset for several customers and I want to filter data by customer instead of creating one datasource for each of them. Thanks!

I was just looking for this, it would make multi tenancy support so easy, just the same report for every customer and you would just pass the datasource parameter through the embedding API...

Sadly, it doesn't seem a supported usecase.

I have an active use case for this functionality right now, which may be the decision maker about whether we purchase an embedded SKU.

As a developer embedding Power BI is a frustrating product to use because it lacks these basic features. If you are trying to support realtime data you can't load all the data to the OLAP cube and then write a bunch of complex MQuery. You really just need to pass a parameter from the web app and inject it into the query of the report.
