We have designed the report which has Pie and bars chart would need to download the entire report as an excel with the Chart representation.
Currently, the report is embedded in the SharePoint page. Would need to download the report from the embedded page, using a Download button.
DataSoruce: SharePoint list.
Report embedded in SharePoint Page.
Is there any way we can download the entire power bi report as excel?
There is no export Report to Excel for standard Power BI reports.
With standard Power BI you cannot export the report as Excel, just PDF and PowerPoint. You can use Analyse in Excel to connect to the data model in the service, but you will have to recreate the visuals from the pivot table.
You can Export to Excel with Power BI Paginated Reports, but you'll need Premium, Premium Per User or Power BI Report Server to use this type of report. You'll be able to export in HTML, MHTML, PDF, XML, CSV, TIFF, Word and Excel.
If the report is embedded into an object like SharePoint you may be able to add an object that calls the API. This will be dependant on the license type you have to access the API, Power BI Embedded EM SKU etc.
This will still result in the same export types for Power BI, PDF and PPTX, but also comes with and image file (PNG as default) and Power BI Premium/Per User options outlined above.

I have a PowerBI Online dashboard with 24 tabs that all need to be exported to PDF as a single document. I would like to be able to download a full workbook of the 24 charts without having to export them manually one by one. Is this possible in PowerBI Online? Is there a way to build a process in PowerAutomate if not? Thanks for the help!
PowerBI Chart Sample
Right now when I click the "Export to DPF" button it is only allowing me to export the chart that is visible (see image - only allows the visible Chart 4 to be exported but not the others).I would like it to export all charts 1-4 in one PDF workbook.
are you using a power bi report server or uploading to a power bi portal because when you click on file-> export-> export pdf on a power bi desktop, your reports return to pdf without any problems. I even tried this for you.
I have 20 users all having the power bi pro license.
There is a requirement to be able to have the report printing ability so that all the contents of the report (for example header, charts, table) visual can be printed. The table should show all data when printed and not the image with scroll bar.
One solution is to use paginated reports using the report builder tool. But this requires the premium capacity or PPU license. I was thinking about an alternative to this and think that maybe I can use an excel report, connect to the power bi dataset, and publish the excel report to the power bi workspace and app.
When such a report is printed then it will retain the header, charts, table with entire table data.
So I want to ask - What is the practical difference between paginated report and an excel report?
I have a power bi desktop connected with SQL database and have some reports in it.
Now I want to generate following things
Every time user enter the name of the database my reports gets automatically refresh and exported in PDF or excel.
If possible I have browser where user can enter the SQL database name and UI pop up and end user can see the power BI dashboard where all reports automatically refreshed as per the user input SQL database name.
Thanks in advance!
For ask 1:
Refer Create and use R visuals in Power BI Once R is installed, open the Run R Script and paste the below R script, depending on your destination and save it.
Example as a excel file: write.xlsx(dataset, file = "C:/dataset.xlsx")
If you are interested in (PDF) and know Microsoft Power Platform, use On Power BI button clicked trigger followed with Export To File for Power BI Reports actions API to export a PDF to your local directory. Demo screenshot
For ask 2:
You can check Embed a report in a secure portal or website to easily embed reports in internal web portals and utilize Automatic page refresh in the Power BI service to set automatic page refresh for reports as long as the data source is DirectQuery.
Power BI Desktop has no restrictions for refresh intervals and can be as frequent as every second. But when reports are published to the Power BI service, certain restrictions apply.
Alternately you can use Datasets Power BI REST APIs - to trigger a refresh for the specified dataset from "My Workspace".

You can also leverage Q&A for Power BI business users the fastest way to get an answer from your data by asking a question using natural language.
After exporting report in PDF format from Power BI desktop, it is showing only visible area data but not the complete table data which was available and visible after scroll down in Power BI Desktop report page.
I have generated the report in PDF format with complete data using below steps:
Prepared the Datasource using Power BI Desktop application and pushed it to Power BI Services in my workspace there.
Accessed the datasource from Power BI Services using Power BI report biulder and converted it to Dataset in Power BI report builder.
Got the DAX query from Power BI desktop application for same datasource to get the report from Power BI paginated report builder.

A client of mine is asking me to export the data from a table or matrix visualization to an excel file for custom reports.
I checked out an excel plugin but couldnt make it work.
Can this be made? Is it one of the premium features only?
Yes it can be done. You can do it like this from Power Bi.
Another approach is if he has an account to power bi that has access to the report he can use an excel plugin to connect to the tabular model.
