Embed reports without have power bi pro
Thanks for these precisions Anonymous
Yeah sorry im not specific on my explication i will try to explain more clearly.
I found 2 way on internet to embed reports into a web application the first way its using a serverless Azure function on Azure portail.
Here the tutorial that i followed and worked : https://www.taygan.co/blog/2018/05/14/embedded-analytics-with-power-bi
Then the second way its the "Power BI embedded" on azure portail i dont understand the difference between that and the first method i mentionned. Is it the cost or the capacity , limitation is not clear for me.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/azure-pbie-create-capacity
if you can enlighten me please...
Thank you and have a great day
ItSupportElm Yeah, the licensing method is the same in both of those. You are provisioning an "A" sku in Azure. This is one of the Power BI Embedded licenses. You can scale this up or down depending on your needs. It still requires that the account you use to access the report has a Pro license. That user also needs to be an admin on the workspace - fyi.
The first link is really good, essentially, you can create and assign a Power BI license in Azure. And follow all the tutorial pieces. On the Power BI side, you would create a workspace, add it to the capacity that will show up there (since you provisioned it in Azure) and add the Pro user to the workspace (its likely you are logging in with that user to do all this, so this may not be an additional step). Then follow the remained of the walkthrough.
Long and short, this is embedded licensing and the user that you use needs a Pro license as well.

Anonymous Thank again for the answer, i understand more clearly
I just see that the first method (Azure function) , the facturation is based on total number of requested executions each month for all functions. But my question is what exactly is a requested execution ? it is the action that the customers do on my report or something else ?
