how can I call bi publisher report from apex.
bi publisher 11.1.1.7
Tyler Muth has covered this topic. You will have to setup an SQL connection from BIP to your APEX (via TNS). Then you will have to write the SQL for Apex system on BIP and setup a report. Then you can use the runReport method of BIP's generic WSDL to invoke that report from Apex.

Its not easy, you will have to debug a lot of stuff yourself.

We have a React app.
What I actually want to do is to send JSON to power-bi service, and on the basis of that json data, powerbi service should create a visual/graphical report for me.
I want this whole process to be automated
What I have done so far is-
I have created a push dataset using powerbi REST APIs mentioned in this doc.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/push-datasets/datasets-post-dataset-in-group
Additionally have created a table inside that dataset through this REST API in the following doc.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/push-datasets/datasets-post-rows-in-group#code-try-0
Now, what I want is to create a visual report/graph from this table inside this dataset.
There are APIs to clone an existing report.
There are APIs to update/delete a report.
But I could not find any APIs that can be used to create a report from JSON or from an existing dataset.

Additionally in regard to creating a report what i have found is just this page in the whole powerbi docs.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/overview/powerbi/create-edit-report-embed-view?tabs=embed-for-your-organization#how-to-create-a-report
This could be helpful as i also want to embed the created report in my React app at the end.
however I tried it in my react app, and couldn't make it work.
Is this even possible to create a powerbi visual report (not a paginated report) with the help of REST APIs, or they can only be created manually?
Please lead my way!
PowerBI Rest APIs are used to Manage PowerBI Content, Embed Power BI Content, Perform Admin operations.
Create a Report in Power BI Service:
Follow the documentation to create a report in Power BI service.
Please note that, Currently Power BI service only supports published dataset or pasting or manually entering data in a table. To connect to other resources, download Power BI desktop.
Create a Report in Power BI Embedded:
Power BI Embedded allows us to create, edit and save reports.
Please note that, a report can be created in powerbi-embedded only if we have an existing dataset. Refer to this documentation on how to create, edit and save reports in powerbi-embedded.

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!
Background: Used Azure Workbook to create dashboard visualization for multi-tenancy scenarios. However, the visualization part is not that robust in Azure Workbook. So thinking of using Power BI.
Questions:
I just wanted to check with all the Azure Log Analytics practitioner here in regards to how they implement/ integrate Power BI with Azure Log Analytics in a multi-tenancy scenario?
What I know so far about PowerBI Integration with Azure Log Analytics:
At the moment it only support Exporting log search query into PowerBI using "Blank Query".
No native integration/ connection between the two
Thank You!
I thin you can use the Azure Data Explorer connector to query from Log Analytics since they are both effectively Kusto databases

I am looking for a way to embed a report published in on premise Power BI Report Server onto an internal web application. The problem is, not all users of the internal web application has privileges to view the report on the Power BI Report Server. So, I am looking to route the web application user to the Power BI Report using a single user who has all the privileges on the Power BI Report Server.
Appreciate any help in advance.
Kind Regards,
NZM
I'm new at the Power BI.
I created dashboard on Power BI and I have published to the web
when opening the dashboard on custom URL I need to export the dashboard to excel report
can I do this in Power BI or not
I new I can to do this in Power BI web APP but I need do that in my dashboard URL
thank you
This "custom URL" that you mention makes me think that you used Publish to web. One of the limitations of this feature is that you can't export the data:
Reports using row level security.
Reports using any Live Connection data source, including Analysis Services Tabular hosted on-premises, Analysis Services Multidimensional, and Azure Analysis Services.
Reports shared to you directly or through an organizational content pack.
Reports in a group in which you are not an edit member.
"R" Visuals are not currently supported in Publish to web reports.
Exporting Data from visuals in a report, which has been published to the web.
ArcGIS Maps for Power BI visuals.
Reports containing report-level DAX measures.
Single sign-on data query models.
Secure confidential or proprietary information.
The automatic authentication capability provided with the Embed option doesn't work with the Power BI JavaScript API. For the Power BI JavaScript API, use the user owns data approach to embedding.
You can vote for this feature though.
