Embedding Power BI Org App in an iFrame
- 6 months ago
In my opinion, org app will not be much different compared to workspace apps, coz Apps are not designed as embeddable UI shells. Embedded content is meant to be reports/dashboards only.
Better Approach:Instead of embedding the entire app
Embed individual reports
Build navigation in your host application

Hello asjones,
Apps consolidate reports and avoid broad workspace access, which is best practice.
However, the full App shell, including navigation, cannot be embedded in an iframe only individual reports or dashboards can.For iframe hosting, embed individual reports and recreate navigation externally, or open the App directly in Power BI Service or Teams for the full experience.
Thanks for the response.
1. The App consolidates reports so it all fits on one screen.
2. Best practice is not to give a a bunch of users access to a workspace. The iFrame access is based on user not a generic account.
2 big reasons for Org Apps or Workspace Apps to support iFrame usage.
