We are seeing same/similar issue.  The main problem is the text boxes appear as blank for those users we've given read/write access to the reports.  For example, we have the Report Title in a text box.  It appears blank for "Read/Write" users.  But for "Read-Only" users, the text appears fine.  For the same report - if we view it in the powerbi.com service, the text appears fine - whether we're in read-only mode (the default) or if we switch to Edit-mode.  Problem seems to be restricted to Embedded reports.

Hi @ejQap 

So it's normal in Power BI Service ,right ? As @orygreg2 said , for "Read-Only" users, the text appears fine. It only appears blank for "Read/Write" users , are you having the same problem now ? Have you tried to remove and re-add the text box in the report, and then re-embed the report?

Hi @Anonymous,

I would like to backup @ejQap demand, as we are getting a similar issue too. Problem exists only on Power BI Embedded, on Service and Desktop it works fine.

Text box seems "greyed out", typing text into oblivion, changing font style or font size doesn't work either.

Embed configuration "permissions" is set to "All" and "viewMode" to "Edit", so it should work fine.

It has been working with current configuration for several months, but not anymore for text box edition.

let embedConfiguration = {
    type: 'report',
    id: xxx,
    settings: {
        panes: {
            filters: {
                visible: true,
                expanded: true
            }
        }
    },
    embedUrl: xxx,
    accessToken: xxx,
    permissions: 7, // All,
    tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,
    viewMode: 1 // Edit
};

@Anonymous same problem with @orygreg2 and @g2a-consulting.

 

It happened only in Power BI Embedded for "Read/Writer" users. Otherwise, working great
