Button Export to CSV not working on embed Dashboard

Hey, 

I have created a button that exports data to a CSV file. Everything works fine, the export is happening on Power Bi desktop and Power Bi service.
But the dashboard is also embed on our admin website and the Button to export doesn't work there.
Is this a limitation? I can't find the info.

@v-henryk-mstf Thanks for your reply. 
I'm on a premium user membership and I don't have the 3 dots available on an embedded report/dashboard. 
That is way I was trying to find an alterniative with the button.
Any idea's or suggestions?

Hi @qmahieu11 ,

 

Yes, according to your description, this is limited. Generally speaking, report and dataset have a one-to-one relationship, and the content of the created report can only come from the same dataset. However, dashboard and report have a many-to-many relationship. The content of a dashboard may come from the content of multiple reports.

Therefore, the role of the button in the dashboard will be invalid. You can only export the corresponding vsc file by selecting a specific visual.

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.


Best Regards,
Henry
