Creating PBIR Files Dynamically Based on Dataset – Any Guidance
I’m looking to create Power BI Reports (PBIR) dynamically using either C# or PowerShell. The goal is to generate PBIR files dynamically based on a given dataset.
Any guidance, insights, or helpful resources on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated.
Looks like the Fabric REST APIs should be able to do that
Power BI Desktop project report folder - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
"During the Public Preview, Fabric Git Integration and Fabric REST APIs continue to use PBIR-Legacy (report.json) when exporting the report definitions. However, if the report is imported into Fabric using PBIR format, then both features start exporting the report definition using PBIR format."

Hi lbendlin Thanks for replying back
Apologies for the confusion earlier — it's PBIP, not PBIR.
Our request is to replicate the exact folder structure of the PBIP file, as outlined below:
Report
.Report/.pbi
.Report/StaticResources
All platform files, including definition.pbir and report.jsonSemanticModel
.pbi
definitionWe’re essentially trying to understand whether it is possible to dynamically generate this complete PBIP folder structure using C# or PowerShell.
Any guidance or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
