Embed code permissions

Hi,

 

I have managed to generate an embed code for one report i was working on (and I can still create new ones when in this report). However when I try to do this in any other report I am told that i need to contact my admin to enable embed code creation. As far as I know there is no one else in my company using PowerBI and so I do not know if there is an admin to contact or how to fix this?

 

Thanks

Hi @cjacob ,

For your situation, I guess you are just a free user or a pro user without admin. You could register in Azure (https://portal.azure.com/#home) to assign yourself to a admin role. And then you can see Admin Portal in Power BI and enable settings.

 

Please follow the steps to assign a administrator.
