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:
This is from the bi demo script at https://www.microsoftofficedemos.com/
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

I have got 4 PowerBI reports. Do you know if there is possible to swicht from one report to the other 3 reports with for example an hyperlink?
Thank you for your answer.
Have you looked at dashboards?
If you actually want a hyperlink instead, on the ribbon click Insert -> Textbox. Paste the url of your report in there and ensure you click the hyperlink button to turn it into a link.
I have a embed Power Bi on my Aspnet app, I use the JavaScript Api to embed the Power Bi to my view.
In my Power Bi I have 4 reports. I need apply a rule to show for some users all 4 reports, and the others show only 1 or 2.
The question is, is there any way to hide the tab so the user can't click? I tried some ways, looking at the Microsoft documentation, but without success.

Yes, You can hide the tab in your embedded report by updating the setting and using navContentPaneEnabled. Please find the below code snippet:
Create new settings:
const newSettings = {
navContentPaneEnabled: false
};
Update new Settings:
await report.updateSettings(newSettings);

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 embedded report, embedded in my web app.
While the report is working as expected I find that I need to click on a widget within the report before being able to click on the items within the widget.
So for example I have a slicer containing a list of names. When I first click on the slicer, it selects the slicer but does not drop down the list of names, the next click allows me to see the list of names.
Is there anything I can do to change this behaviour, such that the first click on the slicer shows the list of names available.
It seems this is caused by me requesting the report in mobile view. Switching to desktop view stop the second click issue.
I had chosen mobile view, as this view allowed the UI to switch between views (landscape/portrait) dynamically without having to reload the report. In desktop view if the user resizes the browser page, the report shrinks shrinks rather than switch between views.
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.
