You can schedule a PowerShell script to save your Power BI report as PDF, and other formats.

Once exported as PDF, you can then send it out as an email attachment. If it is a simple report where everyone can see all the data, then it is going to be very simple. If you have RLS implemented then you'll have to work out your options.

 

Let us know how you go.

Thanks for your response. We do not have a Premium capacity license, so it is throwing below error. We need to implement this functionality on the workspace which was not created using Premium capacity.
