Embedding PowerBI in a PCF Control.
Hi Jaknap,
I have identified few alternative workarounds that may help resolve the issue. Please follow these steps:
The Power BI JavaScript SDK does not provide direct methods to disable real-time updates. However, you can manage the frequency and behavior of updates by adjusting the report configuration in Power BI. Reports linked to real-time or streaming datasets will continue to update automatically.To reduce network impact and control update frequency, consider:
- Configuring the report to use import mode (static datasets) instead of live or streaming datasets.
- Utilizing "load" or "render" events in the SDK to load reports only when necessary (e.g., on-demand).
The frequent subscribe requests are likely due to the Power BI report’s configuration or the live connection to a data source. These requests occur as Power BI needs to keep the data synced. To manage this, suggest:- Using the embedConfig parameter to control interactivity settings, such as disabling auto-refresh features.
- Employing event handlers like onDataChanged to manage update timings, rather than relying on default behaviors.

Thank you for using Microsoft Community Forum.
Thank you for your response. Much appreciated. Is there any settings or workaround I can do at the SDK level?
I am seeing lot of subscribe request being made in the network tab. Is this because of the real time update.
Thank You
