When I publish my Power BI reporting to the web and embed it into my website with allowFullScreen="true", I can see an icon on the bottom right which enables me to see it in fullscreen mode.
However, when I "Securely embed this report in a website or portal", Power BI gives me the iframe code with allowFullScreen="true" but this time I'm not able to see the icon.
Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong here?
The "Enter into fullscreen" button is part of the Power BI Publish To Web - unfortunately it is not available within the option Securely embed this report in a website or portal.
The allowFullScreen="true" has nothing to do with that and is an attribute of the html iframe tag.

I can't figure out how to generate an embed code for a Power BI Dashboard - see picture of dashboard below. There is a "more options" on the dashboard, but no actual way to get an embed code in order to embed on a public website. I have this in report form (it's just the map, so only a one-page report) and I can generate an embed code for the report.
If I click on the dashboard itself, it just takes me back to the report, and any embed code I generate there just embeds the report, which annoyingly is not centered and includes the Power BI menu at the bottom:
Am I missing something here? Where is the option to get an embed code for a dashboard?
The Publish to Web option in Power BI is for reports only, not for dashboards or Apps. Any other embedding for a publicly accessible object must use the custom app approach, with the relevant Premium or Embedded Service.
I have a Power BI report that I want to integrate with my outward facing website.
On my website, if the user clicks on the name "Frank" I would like to pass this paramter to my BI Report. Internally this works with
Query00/name eq 'Frank' appended to the report's URL.
However, when I publish this report to the WEB (Public not within the organization) this parameter string does not work. How do I pass a parameter to a published BI report?
As you can see from the official documentation, this isn't supported:
Query string filtering doesn't work with Publish to web or Export to PDF.
You can either add slicers to your report, which will allow your visitors to filter the data, or embed it in another way.
Secure embedding supports URL filters, but the proper way to do this is to actually embed the report into your site. You can see it in action in Power BI Embedded Playground. When embedding, there are two scenarios - "user owns data", in which each visitor needs Power BI Pro account to see the report, and "app owns data", in which your application uses one Power BI Pro account to authenticate itself, but your users don't need to have Power BI accounts at all. In your case you need the later one.
Simply download Microsoft's sample application and configure it. You need to register Azure AD application to be used in your app. Then your app will authenticate itself and use Power BI REST API to get report's embedUrl and use it with Power BI JavaScript client to embed it in an empty <div> in a web page.
How to embed Power BI is a common question here on StackOverflow, so you can also read other answers, like:

INTEGRATION OF POWER BI WITH HTML PAGE AND ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATION BTW HTML PAGE AND POWER BI
In this example we will embed the powerbi content in html page and create button in html page through which the view of the page will change. the below example i have modified as per above question
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<button class="textLarge" onclick='show("ReportSection", "Frank");' style="display: inline-block;">Frank</button>
So here I am using a button click function "show" which has two parameters one is "page name" and other is "filtervalue"
and I have a iframe through which I am embedding my power bi report.
just remember that the filter value and you are putting is similar to the one in the published Bi report. Avoid spelling mistake as there would be character matching on the string.
<iframe id="embeddedframe" width="2000" height="1000" src="https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=(put_your_report_id_here_and remove_parenthesis)&groupId=(put_your_group_id_here_and remove_parenthesis)&autoAuth=true&ctid=(put_your_ct_id_here_and remove_parenthesis)&pageName=" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>
Basically you don't have to edit the iframe URL, you can directly get it from bi service portal
Then call the below function
In below function you need to edit the
1) baseURL
2) Table_Nameand Colum_Name
3)iframe_id
<script>
function show(pageName, filterValue)
{
var baseUrl='https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?
reportId=b0f&groupId=e2c&autoAuth=true&ctid=efc8&config=e&pageName='
var newUrl = baseUrl + "&pageName=" + pageName;
if(null != filterValue && "" != filterValue)
{
newUrl += "&$filter=Table_Name/Column_name eq '" + filterValue + "'";
}
//Assumes there's an iFrame on the page with id="iFrame"
var report = document.getElementById("embeddedframe")
report.src = newUrl;
}
</script>
A user at my company when opening a dashboard from the Power BI Mobile Windows application receives a “not authorized … contact administrator” error message, however it comes up fine in a browser.
I had to share the dashboard report with him before he could view it in the application.
I hoped someone might have an idea what the issue could be.
Thank you so much.
EDIT: It actually appears this is a global issue with all users. No one can see this report in Power BI Mobile. Everyone receives the error, "The report shown in this tile doesn't exist or you don't have permission to view it.". However viewing it in Chrome or Edge browser it shows correctly.

How can I redirect a certain click onto the powerbi visualizations to a certain web page, let say I want to redirect a embedded report click onto a certain webpage how can I do that, does this kind of visualization possible in Powerbi if yes then How??
At the moment, this is not supported in Power BI.
The only types of links available right now are Back and Bookmark.
There's a feature request for that in the Power BI Ideas site, which you can vote for.
I know this is an old thread, but if you are using Power BI Embedded reports, you can use the PowerBI-Javascript to catch events from the tiles or reports and do some action like redirecting the user to a specific link.
var element = document.getElementById('reportContainer');
var report = powerbi.get(element);
report.on('dataSelected', function(event)
{
console.log(event.detail.dataPoints[0].identity[0].equals);
});
Not sure if this was available at the time, but my solution to this was creating a button that overlays the visualization. You can set the button background to transparent, then assign a fill for "hover" so that it's obvious that it's clickable. Then just set the web address as the action for the button.
I created some very nifty Power View reports in excel, however I would like to view the reports from sharepoint without opening excel first (as if the power view was created entirely from sharepoint without Excel).
The most valable solution I could think of was to start over with new reports in Sharepoint and recreate the whole thing in browser. I do hope there is a better way to achieve this.
Is there a solution to extract the power view reports and publish them to Sharepoint? Any help is appreciated!
If it matters, I am site administrator for the sharepoint environment.
This is the result I would like to have:

To publish the Power View Report to SharePoint.
In Excel, on the File tab, click Save As.
In the Save As window, under Places, click SharePoint, and then click Browse.
In the Save As dialog, click Browser View Options.
In Browser View Options, click Sheets in drop down.
In list of sheets, click the sheet that contains your Power View report, and then click OK.
In Save As dialog, navigate to the Reports Gallery, if not selected by default.
Click Save to upload the workbook from Excel to SharePoint report gallery.
EDIT: Unfortunately you can't extract the power view per this info, office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/…. There's a suggestion on Connect that you can vote on to add this feature in future versions
