Power BI Playground - report embed

Hi Anonymous you could generate an AAD token by registering an Azure AD app with Report.ReadWrite.All permissions. Authenticate via OAuth 2.0 to get an access token from Azure AD. Use this token as a bearer token in your embed configuration to enable edit mode

Hi Anonymous 

Welcome to the Microsoft Fabric Forum. Also, thank you Akash_Varuna for your quick response.

To embed a Power BI report in Edit mode using Power BI Playground or a custom app, you need to generate an Azure Active Directory (AAD) token using a registered Azure AD application that has the Power BI API permissions (Dataset.ReadWrite.All) granted with admin consent.

The app must use a delegated flow, meaning the AAD token must represent a real Power BI user who has edit permissions on the report. After registering the app in Azure AD, create a client secret, and use the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow to obtain an AAD access token with the required scopes.

This token is then used to call the Power BI REST API's /GenerateToken endpoint with "accessLevel": "Edit" in the body to obtain an embed token. This embed token enables the report to be embedded in edit mode within a web app or Power BI Playground. Ensure that the workspace where the report resides is backed by a Power BI Pro or Fabric capacity (F64 or higher).

Hi Anonymous 

The 403 error on the clusterdetails endpoint typically means the AAD token lacks the necessary delegated permissions or doesn't represent a valid Power BI user. This endpoint is used internally by Power BI during embedding to locate the correct service cluster.
 

To fix this, ensure you are using an AAD token obtained via the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow, representing a real Power BI Pro user with edit access to the report. The Azure AD app must have the Dataset.ReadWrite.All delegated permission with admin consent granted, and the token scope should be set to https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api/.default.
 
Avoid calling the clusterdetails endpoint directly; instead, use the standard /GenerateToken API for embedding. If issues persist, inspect the token via jwt.ms to verify user identity and scopes.
