Export to PDF via Power BI Embedded API

[pedro8]

The export to PDF feature of Power BI Desktop is awesome. Could we have this PDF support option via the embedded API to generate PDFs into a network location? Say, an UNC path. This would be fantastic for bespoke applications!

We want a comment system beside out embedded reports. The feedback we got is that some comments are done when the report is in a specific state that the readers of the comment can't reproduce. A screenshot (of PDF) of the state of the report when the comment is made would be extremely helpfull!

Ideally, a way to add specific filters that will be applied in the exported PDF would be great.

We had a simple solution in place to generate PDF reports out of Power BI dashboards. We were doing it via PhantomJs where we load the dashboard into a browser and take a screenshot of what's seen on the view but even this method is not working in the new Power BI embedding. I am seeing these errorrs being emitted through the browser console. onConsoleMessage: Proxy(ehqng): Error occurred when handler was processing incoming message: { "method": "POST", "url": "/reports/s4a6h/events/rendered", "headers": { "id": "u1025" }, "body": {}, "params": { "uniqueId": "s4a6h", "eventName": "rendered" }, "queryParams": {} } Error: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Promise, , 12:13:35 onError: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: Promise, [object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

feels like power bi embedded isnt getting very much attention from MS even though its a premium capacity feature. Desktop has export to pdf, service has export to powerpoint, embedded has nothing!

Hi , Currently i dont see any feature to Send power bi reports as PDF via mail. can we include functionality like that of PBRS or power BI robots. Both are 3rd party tools , it would be great if we dont have to rely on 3rd party and can have Microsoft add such functionality. Please consider to add this Regards, Mona.

Yes, its definitly missing .. I love the Export to PDF fearure in the Desktop Version and really miss it in PBI Embedded.

Is there any chances of introducing this feature in future?

Now that export to pdf option is availbale in Power BI service is there a way this functionality can bring to the embbeded application?

Not having a PDF export function is driving more of our reports to the old Paginated reports, which is a pity. Please enable this function!
