Power Automate flow with Power BI Export visual erroring out

Hi everyone. I have been running into an issue recently where I have built a flow that exports a power bi report and sends it out every morning. Recently, when Power Automate exports the report and sends out the email, the PDF export from Power BI doesn't capture the data within the visuals and it errors out. Wasn't sure if anyone has experienced this before. It happened a few weeks ago too, but then seems like it corrected itself, but then it just started again. Here is what the PDF file looks like. Any insight would be great, thanks!

    Hi bpetrillo153!

     

    I take this export was working previously, and recentrly it started failing? The report itself is working, but the export is not, right?

     

    Are you aware of any changes to access of the underlying data sources (like password changes, or permissions changes)? Just to cover the basics.:)

      Yes thats correct. It was working and then all of a sudden it stopped working, nothing changed as it relates to security or the configuration of the underlying dataset

    The export is not working only when using a Power Automate flow. I can manually go export the report in the service and it works fine. I am an admin of the underlying dataset so their isn't any issue with accessing the underlying data.
