Hi @GSP ,

Sorry, so far, to my knowledge, this may not be achieveable in PBIRS.

Hi,

Noted. Thanks.

We are trying the following code shared by Microsoft Copilot

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Power BI Embedded Report</title>

<script src="https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/dist/powerbi.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>

<iframe id="embeddedReport" width="800" height="600" src="https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=<your-report-id>&groupId=<your-workspace-id>&config=<your-embed-config>"></iframe>

<button onclick="printReport()">Print Report</button>
<button onclick="exportToPDF()">Export to PDF</button>

const reportContainer = document.getElementById('embeddedReport');
const report = powerbi.embed(reportContainer, embedConfig);

// Custom print function
function printReport() {
// Capture a screenshot of the report area (you can use external libraries for this)
// Open the browser's print dialog
window.print();
}

// Custom export function (to PDF)
function exportToPDF() {
// Use Power BI REST API to trigger export
// Example: https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/<your-workspace-id>/reports/<your-report-id>/ExportTo
// Implement the necessary logic to handle the export
console.log('Exporting report to PDF...');
}
</script>
</body>
</html>

Please suggest how can we get the below highlighted access token

const embedConfig = {
type: 'report',
id: '<your-report-id>',
embedUrl: 'https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed',
accessToken: '<your-access-token>',
tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,
settings: {
filterPaneEnabled: false,
navContentPaneEnabled: false
}

Please help

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

We are embedding our Power Bi reports into our web application in iframes. We used the option File-> Embed Report-> Website or Portal

We understand that

If we need to print reports we need to login to app.powerbi.com, need to export the needed reports and need to print.

We do have the possibility to set up 'Print' option in our website where we embeded our Power Bi reports

Could you please confirm this

Thanks

Hi @GSP ,

When you embed a report in a secure portal or website, user need sign in and need license and permission to view the report, and don't show 'Print' options in the report, please refer below screenshot:

Hi @GSP ,

Sorry, so far, to my knowledge, could not set for 'Print' option when you embed a report in a secure portal or website.

Please try to embed report in sharepoint online pages, all toolbars will be show in report.

HI,

Thank you for your reply. We are checking this for one of our client. So do we have any correct link to confirm this is not possible. Please help.

Also, from the following reference links we noticed that we need to have ‘Pro’ account. Is this correct.
