    Hi shah36,

     

    Would I be able to setup the permissions for different department in reporting server along with Power BI reports
    Yes. We can create a new folder and then move the Power BI report to this folder. Then you can set access permission for this folder for your users.

     

    If we decide to deploy a dedicated web app for the reports, would it be possible to embed both SSRS and Power BI reports in the same web app? Of course each report would be published on its own dedicated web page.
    Yes. We can use Iframe to embed power bi report to website page.
    urIframe.Attributes.Add("src", "http://servername/Reports/powerbi/test/?rs:embed=true");

    Hi Charlie,

     

    Thanks for your helpful reply. Fingers crossed as to whether the organisation decides to adopt the SSRS and the Power BI instead of Actuate.
