I haven't worked with Power BI's paginated reports but I'm trying to migrate from SQL Server to Azure SQL. Getting Power BI per-user licenses just for users to be able to generate a report PDF is prohibitively expensive for us.
Is it possible to use Power BI service API in a similar way to SSRS Report Server where you just make a request to generate the report and return the result?
We don't need to embed the paginated reports... just call the service API with the specified params and return the generated report (like SSRS Report Server).
Really hoping to use a single Premium license for the Azure Active Directory App Service registration to avoid needing to have a per-user license for every user that just needs to click a button and generate an invoice.
Essentially this, but with Power BI Paginated Reports: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/export-a-report-using-url-access?view=sql-server-ver16
I'm asking just to see if I'm wasting my time by digging further into this. Thanks in advance!
I need to do reporting for my client and are looking into Power BI. What I need to do, is create the report and publish it to the client's website for the public. These reports are public knowledge, there is no security risk to distribute it.
The users should be able to see the report on the website and use some filtering options that comes with Power BI.
I have installed Power BI Desktop (free option) and created the report, but I can not 'Save as' to Web - there is no such option.
My questions are:
Do I need a licence to be able to publish to the web.
Once published to the web, will it be displayed on the website to the users with the functionality to filter and drill down even if they do not have Power BI license?
You have two options - Publish to web and to use the API to embed for your customers (a.k.a. app owns data).
In both cases you must publish the report to Power BI Service. You will need an account for that, but even the free one will work for Publish to web case. However, it is way more limited that the actual embedding using the API.
To register an account, you will need a "business e-mail address", i.e. GMail, Outlook, etc. will not work. This is required, because it will create a tenant for this domain, where the administrators in your organization can manage it.
For Publish to web the administrator must explicitly enable that option in the admin portal. Embedding using the API require programming skills, and normally you will need to buy a "dedicated capacity" (i.e. Power BI Embedded or Power BI Premium).
I am new to using Power BI gateways. I have created a dashboard using Power BI Desktop connecting to the Test server. Now I have been asked to switch to Production but they wont give me access to the Production. Instead they have setup a data source using Manage Gateways in PBI Service and they are asking me to consume it in my reports. I am so confused if it is actually possible to switch my reports to Production without having access to it. I believe we cannot link PBI Desktop with the DS setup in the Gateway connections directly.
I tried parameterizing database connection so that they can switch to Live and publish it. But they raised a question if they change the password one day and there are many reports published, will they have to go through each of these reports and update with the new password.
Can anyone please provide me a solution for this?
I didn't try this approach, but you can try and check this works for you or not.
In your local Power BI file, In Data Source Settings provide the Production server name.
Give a dummy User ID and Password
Now publish the report to the Power BI Service
Ask your admin now to add appropriate Gateway to the data source. While adding gateway to the data source, the admin should asked for database Credentials and after providing information, it should work.
As I said this is not tested here, I can just hope for the best :)
We develop a windows application that gets deployed with a SQL Server database to client's sites. On the site they may use SQL Server Express or a better version, depending upon their data needs, most would have Express.
We would like to embed and distribute Power BI files (pbix) in to our application. The Power BI files would connect to the client's own instance of SQL Server to obtain the data. Is this possible? If so, how do we go about doing this?
Very possible to do.
Embedding Power BI reports requires either Power BI Report Server (an enhanced SSRS) or Power BI Portal services. The report is embedded in an IFRAME or other embedded web browser. (They are HTML, CSS and JavaScript.)
Licensing will be a consideration for your project. While the Power BI Desktop client is free, the Power BI Report Server and the hosting of reports from the cloud are not. The users who publish the reports will need a Power BI Pro subscription. If you are looking for a free or inexpensive embedded report solution, this is not it.

I'm a newbie in Power BI..
I need to develop a tabular report (no visualizations) in Power BI and publish it to powerbi app so that client can see live reports.
For that what are the settings we have to do in app.powerbi or powerbi cloud?
When I published a report in my pbi cloud, in the report section, there is an option to publish /embed code. But it says the content will be available to public. So how can we restrict access? Do the client need to have pbi account to share the reports? Please let me know what type of PBI account we have to purchase to meet this requirement.
Also is it mandatory to create dashboard in order to share it to the client? Because report option serves the purpose? Is there any advantages in creating dashboard over reports?
Or do you feel any other suggestions rather than Power BI?
Data format: txt, tab delimited
Type of data: Medical records
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Power BI world has different things:
Power BI Desktop (PBID)- this is fat desktop client to create reports. You can use it for free.
Power BI Services (PBIS)- this is SaaS application that allows you create reports and share it. When you open powerbi.com you work with this app. All you reports located in logical containers - workspaces. This container like folder, nothing more. You can publish report from Desktop here into specific workspace. You can embed report from there, but without authentication, thus everyone can see it.
Power BI Embedded (PBIE)- this is PaaS solution to embedded reports into you app. Reports anyway should be stored into some workspace at PBIS. But you app can implement auth and show only specific reports to particular users. All users in you app can see different content and reports, based on your app logic, because you manage access to report via PBIE SDK. Take a look at playground.
So when your users work with PBIS they work with Microsoft Web App, if you want embedded same reports into you app, use PBIE with provided SDKs.
As for licenses. In fact there is only one license type: PRO.
If your users want publish and share reports using PBIS they ALL must have PRO licenses. That the point. You can use all products free unless you want share you reports and analysis. If you need to share you have to pay.
Different thing for PBIE. You implement your app as you wish, you manage you users. They should not have PRO licenses. In fact, you need one license to store you reports. I call this like service account. This is regular PBIS user with PRO license. You use it only for publishing reports and storing it at PBIS and you app use it to load and embedded reports. If you have 1000 users, you can buy 1 license and use it to publish you work and all users will be authenticated in you app, authorization also will be done in your app.
Another thing, that once you go in prod you need to buy capacity - Power BI Embedded Services at Azure. The cost depends on renders. Read more docs on this.
