Power Bi dashboard within PowerApps application

Hi

I have one small question, I am trying to embedd one of my Power Bi tiles into one of my PowerApps as I believe this is the most awesome and helpful function released to date.

However I am having difficulty with the 'TIle' dropdown.

In the 'Workspace' dropdown my options are there, same as with the Dashboard. But somehow the 'TIle' dropdown is innaccessible. Its just slightly greyed out and I cannot select it. 
What am I doing wrong? I have made sure the tile is shared with me from Power Bi side, as I am the owner anyway.

Any advice?

Regards
Lorcan

    OK, I just did this. Really cool. So, I created a band new blank app, added the Power BI Control and then I clicked the control's connect to data. Then I selected my workspace and then my dashboard and then the Tile dropdown became available and I was able to select a tile. Only thing I can think of is perhaps you have tiles on your dashboard that are not compatible? I was working with My Workspace.

      Hi Smoupre

      May I ask what you mean by 'Not compatible'?

      Thanks for your response

    I am having this exact same issue. This would be a huge help if I could get this to work.

      If you pin individual power bi report elements to your dashbaord insted of pining whole report it seems to work

      What browser are you using? I found that in Edge the Dashboard and Tile was greyed out, once i switched to Chome i was able to select something.

       

      Also make sure you have created a dashboard under the workspace your report is located.

      If you go into Power Bi on the left you can see if you have a dashboard or not.
