Hi miketechspeak,

What type of embed feature did you mean? Power bi embedded or 'publish to web'?
If you are using 'publish to web', I'd like to suggest you check the limitations lists to confirm it your scenario meets the limitations.

Publish to web from Power BI#limitations

    We are using PowerBI embedded.
    Which I have to imagine it is more of either a bug, permissions issue, or a security vulnerability on lockdown. With the security vulnerability or permissions logic being, since I am logged in as a trusted member via the service I can have access to it, but with embed, the end user doesn't need to log in.
    The page renders properly on all browsers using https://app.powerbi.com/home I could be wrong, but I doubt the same logic was written to translate to Web multiple times, once for PowerBI Embed, once for https://app.powerbi.com/home and once for publish to web. The root underlying logic is the same. 

    Thoughts?
