PBI PowerPoint add-in working in desktop, pulling 'blocked add-in" error in PPT Web client

[kbrhoades]

We are having no issues using the Poweb BI add-in in PowerPoint when using the PowerPoint desktop client, however when opening the file in PowerPoint in the web we are getting a "Add-in Error: Your system administrator has blocked add-ins from the Office Store".  What exactly are we missing?

Thanks.

In case anyone else runs into this, a few days after adding Power BI to the Integrated Apps list in the 365 Admin panel everything started working, we just didn't wait long enough.

Hi @kbrhoades ,

This is because your system administrator has blocked add-ins from Office Store, please let your administrator give your the access to add-ins.

For more details, you can read related document: Manage add-ins in the admin center - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn

Add-ins are not blocked.  We also added PBI to the Integrated Apps.  Now we insert the add-in in the web OR the desktop client, but can't open that file in the other client, even though it says it is the same version (2.0.0.3).

Steps to recreate:

1. Create file in PowerPoint DESKTOP client

2. Insert > Power BI (button)

3. Link to report

4. Save

5. Open file in PowerPoint WEB client - error -
