8 TopicsHow to support direct navigation to a page within a multi-page report
We have a multi-page Power BI report, that was previously published to Power BI service, and embedded in our web application. We are using the Power BI javascript api to directly navigate to a page based on config options in our web app. We are trying to move that report to Power BI Report Server, but RS doesn't suppor this direct navigation. What alternatives exist to work around this limitation? We are thinking of splitting the existing report into multiple reports, with one page each. This will create new problems with having multiple identical models, all competing for resources during scheduled refresh. I can't find a way to share a Report Server data source with multiple Power BI reports. Is it possible?Solved800Views0likes1CommentFiltering on Externally Embedded Reports
We have a bunch of reports that are embedded (Publish to web (public)) into an external website's iFrame for outside users to access. We need these reports to link to each other using filters within the report. We have tried everything we can think of but cannot get it to work. Is this not possible when embedding publically?Solved561Views0likes1CommentSession API questions
Greetings; I inherited an application from a previous developer who turned over scant documentation. We have a running application with embedded PowerBI reports, and this runs fine. We are trying to stand up another instance of this application, and cannot seem to get the embedded Power BI reports to function. At this stage, we believe one issue is the Session API. When the user clicks the link to open the embedded report, we call .../api/2.0/Session, and we get similar to the following in response on the system that is functional: date: "Tue 21 Feb 2023 17:45:13 GMT" setCookie: sqlAuthCookie="...." (redacted) server: "Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0" On the non-functioning system, I get this: connection: "close" date: "Tue 21 Feb 2023 17:42:11 GMT" server: "Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0" Can anyone point me in the direction of how I can find out why my session is not being established properly, any logging I can enable, or other troubleshooting ideas? My report server is running and functional on both systems, but just not integrated within the calling application on the second.532Views0likes0CommentsLet enduser control fonts i embeded solution
I have a customer the wants to know if it's possible to let an end user of an Web application which embeds a power bi report server report to controll the Fontsize, -color, -type in tables, headings and so on. From what I can find in the documentation there is no way of doing this by passing in parameters or any other way. Have anyone done something similar?1.3KViews0likes4CommentsWhat URL parameter do you pass to use PageView by default in an embedded Power BI report?
I found the following documentation for URL parameters: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/paginated-reports/report-builder-url-parameters I am trying to display the report in "PageView" when it opens instead of the "Default" view. The documentation states it is the following parameter with the following value rdl:reportView 'interactive' (default): load the report in interactive mode. 'pageView': load the report in page view mode. But this does not work and the report always displays in default mode. I have tried various permutations of parameter names (e.g. rdl:reportView, rdl:view, reportView, view, etc) and with various values pageView, 'pageView', 'page', without success. The documentation also incorrectly lists rdl:parameterPanelState as the parameter for not displaying the parameter panel but the parameter is actually rdl:parameterPanel so there appear to be some issues with the documentation. Any ideas on how to default to Page view? Thanks!1KViews0likes1CommentPower BI Embedded and RLS
My company is hoping to deploy Power BI Embedded to a platform we allow our customers to access without needed a paid Power BI account. My boss and I are database and reporting guys, not web devs, and some of the particulars are going over our heads. We'd like to employ RLS in a multi-tenant database. This seems perfectly doable, but we can't possibly designate roles to all the accounts that might access the reports. This, presumably, is where using Embedded comes in, but we still need to pass a role to Power BI to implement RLS for the users who have authenticated into our portal. I gather this is something involving tokens, but my expertise does not extend to this area. What information do I need to provide to our web devs to help them properly authorize our customers to view our reports and manage access to their particular data? I realize this is a big question and I sincerely appreciate any help you can offer.Solved1.2KViews0likes1CommentPBIRS Embeded Report View Options
We host reports embedded in the PBI Service as well as OnPrem from the PBIRS. OnPrem we are filtering reports with parameters and displaying them in an iFrame. The reports all show as Actual Size, and depending on the user resolution there may be a ton of white space around the report. In the service I can edit a report and set the view option (image below) which is respected when the report is embedded. In PBIRS if I view the report I have access to the view menu, but it seems to only apply to that session. I want the report to always be 'Fit to Width'. Is there a way to save that option or to have it load that way in the iFrame through a URL parameter I'm not aware of??Solved1.7KViews0likes2Comments
