404 Client Error - Export Report In Group
- 1 year ago
Hi ms_query
Thank you for using Microsoft Community Forum.
When a report is cloned using the API or bound to a semantic model from another workspace, Power BI generates only metadata for the report in that workspace. No PBIX file is created or transferred in this process. This is why the report’s isFromPbix property is set to false.
Because there’s no PBIX file stored behind these reports in the workspace, that is why we are getting 404 error.
- Open the original report in Power BI Desktop and Publish it to your target workspace. that ensures the service has a true PBIX.
- If you need a PBIX file to export, open the report in the Power BI Service, go to File > Download this file (PBIX), save it to your computer, and then re-publish it to the workspace. This will create a proper PBIX file in the workspace that you can then export.
If this information is helpful, please “Accept as solution” and give a "kudos" to assist other community members in resolving similar issues more efficiently.
Thank you. - Open the original report in Power BI Desktop and Publish it to your target workspace. that ensures the service has a true PBIX.
Thanks BhavinVyas3003 for the reply,
But it doesn't help. BTW the dataset was already linked when the clone API was triggered.
I notice one more diference, the property 'isFromPbix': False of reports for cross workspace cloning. Don't know why it is changed while the source version has this property True.
