Export Power BI report into CSV

Hello

I am trying to integrate a power automate button which will export the filtered data to CSV (CSV will create in a SharePoint location). It is working fine after publishing in the Power BI workspace.

But once I create embedded link throught “publish to web” and try through the web link, it shows “triggering” , but  can’t export any file at the SharePoint location. Please note, I always log in to my SharePoint before triggering.

 

Can you please help me how I can export in csv through power automate button  on web link?

  • Anonymous Publish to web has many limitations, one of which is exporting information from visuals. You will need to use a secure embedding solution instead.

    • Reports using row-level security.
    • Reports using any Live Connection data source, including Analysis Services Tabular hosted on-premises, Analysis Services Multidimensional, and Azure Analysis Services.
    • Reports using a shared dataset that is stored in a different workspace from the report.
    • Shared and certified datasets.
    • Reports shared to you directly or through an app.
    • Reports in a workspace in which you aren't an edit member.
    • "R" and Python visuals aren't currently supported in Publish to web reports.

    • Single sign-on data query models.

    • The automatic authentication capability provided with the Embed option doesn't work with the Power BI JavaScript API. For the Power BI JavaScript API, use the user owns data approach to embedding.
    • Admins can block public internet access, as described in Private links for accessing Power BI. In that case, the Publish to Web option is grayed out for your tenant in the Power BI admin portal.

    Greg_Deckler Thanks a lot for the information. 
    Just for confirmation, I have created the power automate flow through my organizational account . It is working fine with workspace.

    Though it is not asking for any log in info further, but showing "triggering" but can't export any file in share point location. 

    Below is the flow:

    Do you think it is also an issue regarding permission?
