Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You can use the R script to convert the data frame into JSON format and export into a JSON file. Refer to the following solution for detailed steps:

You can use REST API to extract data from Power BI.

Hey,

can you clarify what you mean by export report as JSON data?

 

Do you need to export the data within Power BI dataset in JSOn format or you want to preserve the meta data of the PBIX file in JSON format?

@NandanHegde  Not sure what is the best option, but we would like to re-use the "final" data from the dashboard in other internal tools.
