Need to get PDF Export for report through Code
You could consider using Power Automate to hide the complexity of the authentication and rendering process. However there are severe limitations on the Export to File options (something like 8 requests per day) that will make your 500K target hard to achieve.

Yah, I kind of feel dumb even asking. The answer has got to be Power BI Premium Capacity and the API. I am wondering though what that kind of performance is going to be like, b/c 500k pdfs is a lot of everything especially once a month. Appreciate the help.

Never hurts to ask. But to re-emphasize - anything over 8 extracts/exports per day will not work reliably. This is designed as an ad-hoc micro service, not for industrial scale.
