Use Power Automate with Report Server
You would typically not use Power Automate with Power BI Report Server. Report Server is usually installed on-prem and Power Automate is a cloud service so there is usually no connectivity between them.
But if you just want to export a paginated report to a PDF you can do this by creating a subscription to the report and then you can either send the PDF via email or to a network file share.

I don't think I can do that. I have a Power Apps application that call my Power automate flow to generate one or more paginated report in pdf and finally, upload the pdf to an sharepoint.

Then I think you probably also need to look at publishing your paginated report to the cloud instead of hosting it on-prem. Then you should not have any issues connecting Power Automate to the report.
Is there anyway that I can connect power automate with Power Bi Report server?
I aim to create a button on my app (Power apps) that will trigger a flow then execute the "Refresh Now" on a report uploaded on my Power BI Report Server.
