Filtering on Externally Embedded Reports

[Anonymous]

We have a bunch of reports that are embedded (Publish to web (public)) into an external website's iFrame for outside users to access. We need these reports to link to each other using filters within the report. We have tried everything we can think of but cannot get it to work. Is this not possible when embedding publically?

Hi @Anonymous ,

When you use "Publish to web" the filtering pane will not be visible, but you can always add slicers to your report, which will allow your visitors to filter the data.

You can download Microsoft’s sample application and configure it. You need to register Azure AD application to be used in your app. Then your app will authenticate itself and use Power BI REST API to get report’s embedUrl and use it with Power BI JavaScript client to embed it in an empty <div> in a web page.

The following Stack Overflow post could help you:
