Pin to Power BI Dashboard error
Hi, when I "Pin to Power BI Dashboard" a SSRS report, I got the response 'you don't have any dashboard, you need at least one dashboard that you have permission to pin to'.
However, I do have dashboards in Power BI, and my Power BI tenant is nicely integrated with SSRS. I tried a lot of different scenarios without success. Everything sits in the same domain.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi Karel - it may be that you haven't created a group in power bi. See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt604784.aspx
Apologies for coming on someone else's thread, but I've also been trying (and failing) to pin an SSRS visual to my Power BI dashboard, despite appparently successfully linking the two. It does seem that we need to specify a group to make this work, but Groups are only enabled in Power BI Pro.
Compare Microsoft's official instructions with this blog post about the feature using CTP3, and the requirement for a Group isn't there. Did Microsoft change this just prior to release? If so, they really need to make it clear that this is Pro only feature.
PaulBamburyKeith Are either of you using "Pro"? I'm still running the evaluation copy of SQL 2016 in a test environment and have no issues pinning a report element to my Power BI Pro. I can pin the chart to my workspace or a group workspace.
Are you both still using Evaluation, or have you installed SQL 2016 Enterprise?
Hi, I am having the exact same issue.
Dashboards exist in powerbi and on the site.
SSRS server has been registered.
User has been registered.
Yet when pinning a report image or chart I keep getting a pop-up sayin that I need to have a dashboard that I can pin items too.
What could possibly be the solution ?
I was using powerbi free and SQL Server 2016 evaluation.
I have now subscribed to the 60 trial of powerbi pro and suddenly I can pin ssrs items to my dashboards.
Seems there is either a bug or powerbi free isn't allowed to pin ssrs items to a dashboard.
Did you get to the bottom of this? I'm experiencing the same issue and haven't found a way to get around the error saying that I have no Dashboards for which i have permission to pin reports.
gcairns are you using Power BI Pro? or Free. See Keith's last comment, the issue went away with a Pro license. I don't recall reading that requirement anywhere, but it wouldn't surprise me as in the GA you need SQL Enterprise, and since you need a Pro license to use SQL as a datasource, since SSRS is a component of SQL - you need a PBI Pro license.
