Thank you for the great demo! By chance did you ever have the time to get the postman library together for sharing?

[@sadyaz64]

Very well explained thanks

[@bharathbhushan-zw2er]

Hello Mike, This video is completely awesome, Can you please explain how to embed using pro license. As you did with service principle?

[@PowerBITips]

a Pro license only allows for a limited number of embeds, while you can embed reports from a pro workspace, this is not a sustainable solution. A premium capacity is required to embed reports into applications, either a P, A, EM or F sku is required to have embedding work. There are also license considerations, a P sku can be used for internal and external embedding, an A sku is for ISV of external only, an EM sku is for internal embedding and an F sku is for both internal and external embedding. my recommendation to customers is only use the F sku as it has the most flexibility in cost and embeds for both internal and external users.

Thanks!

[@PowerBITips]

No problem! thank you so much!!

[@bitworktech]

Excellent work, thank you sir!

Thanks for uploading! Great demo

Hi sir, Thanks for the detailed explanation, could you share the postman Library?, Thanks a lot.

[@cognosboss9411]

Did you ever share the postman library?

[@gaminginn6072]

can someone share how you have done it for your PHP project? Please we are stuck

[@allanspielman9762]

Q: I am sure the answer to this is yes. We have an application that has a reporting facility we want to imbedd power bi using it in the use for customers context. The report facility will create html tables or xml that we would feed into power bi imbedded via jQuery or JavaScript. We do something similar using pivot.js Is this possible using your product? Again we would be using jQuery for To call the power bi embedded Using json or an html table is input

[@PowerBITips]

I think you might be mixing topics a bit here. There is a report you are looking to build and then there is the data side of things. The data can be "inserted" into a Power BI data model either by a Push Dataset or by loading the data on a scheduled refresh. So, you have options here. Reach out to me on LinkedIn if you'd like to discuss your needs with more detail. I think the question you are asking is possible with some modifications to your requirements. www.linkedin.com/in/michaelcarlo

Awesome demo! Like other people are asking, if you could share the postman library that will be super helpful for the community! Thanks a ton.

[@PowerBITips]

I haven't had a chance to finish this yet, Still working on that sharable content. Been kind of swamped with work at the moment. Still planning on getting this out.

[@JesseStahl-kg2rr]

Been getting a 403 error whenever attempting to access any Power BI API endpoint 🤧... Gone through loads of tutorials and stack overflow threads and have checked every box there. Do I need to use a pro version in order to access the API? I have a trial version.

[@PowerBITips]

What api endpoint are you trying to hit? If you are accessing the endpoint as a user you will need different permissions than a service principal.

[@PowerBITips]

There are also admin tenant settings that need to be turned on to use the APIs with an app registration ( service principal )

[@JesseStahl-kg2rr]

@@PowerBITips Hey thanks for replying!!! Problem was fixed: I was using an old endpoint to generate a token... If anyone reading is having trouble one thing may help: double and triple check you are using every correct endpoint!!!

[@girishrainbow]

Hi, I have Power BI Pro licence and have SSAS Installed in AWS server. I want Embedded Power bi report into one of the rest API (.net Code) with a Edit Option (Adhoc Report) For eg . when user login into rest api he should be able to edit and interact with power bi report with available data. Is this possible or not. If not what can be the otherway around.

[@shafeeqniyas545]

if you could share the postman library that will be super helpful

[@dummytester6374]

Getting the bad request status at the /GenerateToken part @41:20, does anyone have a solution? and thanks for the vid!

[@listeningcontent4596]

Hi Mike, Can you please share the postman library please?

[@jacomathew1300]

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I embedded a report which I created in my pro account using azure devops but now I am getting this error when I try to get the embed token using Postman: "You have exceeded the amount of embed token that can be generated on a shared or ProPlus capacity. You need to purchase Azure capacities to generate embed tokens". So I purchased Premium per user and assigned it to the workspace. But I am still getting the same error. Any suggestion on how I must proceed ? Request : Can you do a PowerBi embed with AAD token.

[@PowerBITips]

Just purchasing Premium does not give you the proper access. You will need to apply the premium to the workspace that is doing the embedding. Also, I recommend you set a service principal to access PowerBI.com apis and attach that to the workspace. The service principals are the way to go.

[@jacomathew1300]

@@PowerBITips Thanks. Premium per user is applied to the workspace. I also have Service Principle access to the workspace with admin permission. The Workspace connection URL in premium settings is different. In place of groups, it is showing the workspace name. Does it matter ? When I use groups in the get request, I am able to get details of all reports in the workspace. But when I use the workspace name (from the workspace connection), I get 404: not found. Any thought what the workspace connection URL is for ? Also I tried using the AAD token instead of Embed token in playground (I selected the AAD token), but couldn't get it to work. Could you make a video with steps to view the report using the AAD token instead of Embed token in Embedded playground ?

[@ChronicSurfer]

@34:01 Even after refreshing my screen, I can't find the app registration name in Power BI; any advice?

[@TheRadderz]

I am having the same issue, don't suppose you solved this?

[@TheRadderz]

I found in the power bi services Admin Settings a way to enable service principals under tenant- options>dev options and then they show up in that section.

[@MadMako]

@@TheRadderz Thanks for adding your solution here -- it got my team unstuck!

[@franciscoborges9426]
