Hi @Samson_Gill, Hope you are doing good!

You can achieve this by creating a subscription in the report server by selecting the windows share file option.
There you can also select the file format, time at which you want the export to be happened.
You may also need to setup a shared folder on your local machine: (Click here to know more)

Hi, @Samson_Gill 

To automatically export PDFs from Power BI Report Server to an on-premises folder without using Azure App Registration, you can use Power Automate.
Go to Power Automate and create a new flow. Choose the trigger that fits your needs, such as scheduled times or events in Power BI.
Use the Export to File to Power BI Report action to export the report to PDF. You'll need to provide workspace, report, and export format details.
Add a Create File action to save the exported PDF to a local folder. In Folder Path, select the folder where you want to save the file. Power Automate will generate the file name and content for you. Finally, automate the process by setting it to run on a schedule or based on a specific trigger. You can check the following link:
