Power BI Subscription Email with PDF Report shows blank visualisations
Since a few weeks back my emailed PDF reports are doing this:
These reports are on a premium workspace, and both the dataset and the dataflows that fetch this data are successfully fetching their data on a schedule.
When I log into the PowerBi service and and open the report, it shows the data correctly. If I then manually run the scehduled email task, the PDF report I receive contains the data.
So the issue seems to be that the report itself is not refreshing for some reason when the scheduled email task prepares the PDF report.
Any help please?

Hi zayne ,
The PDF export has a a number of limitations on which visuals it can export - do any of the visuals match the ones in this list:
Export reports to PDF - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
It isn't a limitation issue - as I mentioned, the PDF generates perfectly if I log into the PowerBi service, then view the report there, then kick off the email subscription manually.
