Creating one report from Multiple data sets

I need to determine the best way to create and print a single report that includes visuals from multiple reports each with a separate data source so my users can select a give client and create one report.  I know this is best suited for paginated reporting but the structure and visuals are all created and needed in Power BI and it is much easier to build an maintain there.    I see that it is possible to generate an exported PDF using Power Automate and then I could possibly merge multiple PDFs from multiple reports.  This seems a  little clunky.   Is there a good way to combine multiple data sets into one report?   Thanks for any suggestions.

If you are using the Power BI cloud service you could try using this feature Using DirectQuery for datasets and Analysis Services (preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn to create one dataset that combines all your other datasets, then build a single report off that. 

 

Unfortunately this feature is not supported in the on-prem Report Server and paginated reports would be the only option there.
