Export to file in power bi embedded

[RizwanUddin]

Hi 

We are using Power Bi as Embedded and have A3 SKU. We show reports published on Power BI through our application using embedding to our clients. Recently we have added functionality of Export to PDF and PPT. With my testing user it is working fine but on production is generates following error

{

  "error": {

    "code": "InvalidRequest",

    "message": "You have exceeded the amount of embed token that can be generated on a shared or ProPlus capacity. You need to purchase Azure capacities to generate embed    tokens. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=868976"

  }

}

As I mentioned I have A3 Capacity and the mentioned report is in the workspace which is already on this dedicated capacity.

We I switch this workspace to non premium (dedicated) capacity it generates following error

{
"error": {
"code": "InvalidRequest",
"message": "Report requested for export is not on dedicated capacity"
}
}

Can any one help me on this?

Hi @Anonymous @Greg_Deckler 

My problem is not solved.

Let me explain it again

We have A3 Capacity in use. My workspaces are all on this Dedicated Capacity. We are using one Pro user (say abc@xyx.com) for Publishing all reports and same pro user is used in our embedded application used to show reports and everything is working fine. Same user is used for the Installation of Gateway at our Datawarehouse to refresh data in Power Bi dataset.

Recently we have added a functionality in our Application's report preview page to Export Report in PDF or PPT using REST API. When I login my application and view report (using default user abc@xyz.com) reports are viewed but when I try to Export them usinng REST API it shows following error

{

  "error": {

    "code": "InvalidRequest",

    "message": "You have exceeded the amount of embed token that can be generated on a shared or ProPlus capacity. You need to purchase Azure capacities to generate embed    tokens. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=868976"

  }

}

Now I take another new Pro user (say 123@xyz.com) and add this user in our embedded application and add same use in all worskspaces as Admin reports starts exporting.

The difference berween my two users is when I check the availale features for abc@xyz.com it shows 100 but for new pro user 123@xyz.com it shows 0

My question is when I am on dedicated capacity then why REST API for export report into PDF or PPT is checking embedtrial usage?

Please help me

Hi @RizwanUddin 

As far as I remember the embed service is not included in the normal pro license. So I guess you used the trial license of embed that probably expired and the service stopped.

There's no limit to how many embed tokens you can generate when you purchase a capacity. Go to Available Features to check the usage value that indicates the current embedded usage in percentage.

You can see official doc about the tokens through the link below .
