Automated batch report update and upload?

Hello,

 

I work at a fast growing company that uses PBI reports to visualize sensor data. We develop reports in PBI Desktop and upload them to the PBI Service from where our customers can access them. Data is imported with SQL queries from a Microsoft Azure DB.

 

The number of reports is growing steadily, with currently about 70 published reports based on 5-6 templates that are identical except for an account ID used for filtering data.

 

Whenerver a change is made in a report template, we have to manually upload a report for each account, which of course is a very repetetive and time-consuming task.

 

So, my question is: Does PBI offer any method for bulk or batch report uploads, rather than manually doing it one report at a time in the PBI Desktop GUI?

Cheers,

Mike

There is a Power BI REST API that might help. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/

 

Seems like you might want to investigate Row Level Security (RLS)
