Schedule email delivery of PowerBi dashboards embedded in external application

We have PowerBi dashboards which are going to be embedded in an external application. How can I add ability for an external customer to schedule email copies (in PDF) of these dashboards? The option is available in PBI service, but am looking for similar in powerBi embedded in external app.

This is not possible with Power BI embedded.  Your best bet is going to be using Power Automate to set up an automated delivery of the embedded report for them. 

 

Please mark this post as solution if it helps you. Appreciate Kudos.

Hi @abansalgeoforce 
Thank you for reaching out microsoft fsbric community forum.

Currently, Power BI Embedded doesn’t have a built-in option to schedule email subscriptions with PDF exports like Power BI Service does. However, you can still achieve this functionality using other methods:

  • For a simple setup with a few users → You can use Power Automate to export reports as PDFs and send them via email.
  • For a more scalable, customizable solution → The Power BI REST API allows you to automate report exports and schedule emails programmatically.

    If you need more info please go through below microsoft official documentation. It might help you.

If this solution helps, please consider giving us Kudos and accepting it as the solution so that it may assist other members in the community.
Thank you.

 

Thanks. However, we sre looking for ability for the external user (non powerbi) to schedule the dashboards once they are embedded in application
