Comments on: Walkthrough of Power BI Embedded (Embed Power BI in ISV application)/2017/07/14/power-bi-embed-report-in-app/Professional Development, Data ScienceThu, 10 Dec 2020 07:32:14 +0000hourly1http://wordpress.com/By: Akshay/2017/07/14/power-bi-embed-report-in-app/comment-page-1/#comment-35976Thu, 10 Dec 2020 07:32:14 +0000http://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tsmatsuz/?p=5886#comment-35976I want to embed a user-specific report in the ISV application. I have to show that report to almost 1000 users with different access.
what I do till now is, I generate an embedded token with RLS and manually update it in my sample application. But it is not going to work for ISV application.
So how can I restrict user access to data within dashboards in an ISV application?

I’m frequently using Fiddler. (Now you can use Fiddler also on Mac OS.)

This would be your screenshots with the green text and black background

Hi Matt-san, sorry for my late response.
My script’s samples include 3 samples, in which one is View mode using powerbi.js, the next is manually hosting (without powerbi.js), and the last is Edit mode (with powerbi.js). (I’ve just added each captions in this post.) Are you using corresponding embed token ?
You can download powerbi.js (see https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript) and please change your script path to your installation folder. For example, if you get using npm, /node_modules/powerbi-client/dist/powerbi.js will be the dist scirpt path.

I tried to copy and paste the HTML code into a file called SamplePowerBI.html and I replaced the token, url and report id from one of the reports in the playground site and it doesn’t bring anything up?? https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/v2-demo/index.html

I tried in different browsers as well.

Is this outdated code? Or is there something I’m missing here?

Yes.
Sorry, but I don’t have any examples for using these data sources (except for SQL database, etc).

The following seems to suggest that it can be done – http://radacad.com/power-bi-embedded-power-bi-customized-for-you

Will probably give it a go and see if it works. Please let me know if you come across any examples.

Hi, Jay-san. My concern is whether MySQL data source is supported or not in current Power BI Embedded.
Power BI Embedded used to have strict restrictions for supported data sources, because the data source must be updated after upload, when using Power BI Embedded. Please see below, and now SQL Server, Azure SQL Server, Analysis Services, Azure Analysis Services, OData Feed, and SharePoint are only supported for Update Datasources API.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updatedatasources

But now you can change various kind of parameters (including connection string) using PBI Embedded as follows.

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/power-bi-embedded-query-parameters-api/

As a result, please try and see whether you can set connection string for MySQL in PBI Embedded. (I’m sorry, but I don’t have the answer for this question …)

For other questions, you can involve your own credential mechanisms with PBI Embedded, and also you can use time related functions in DAX on your report. Let’s enjoy !

I am though new to Power BI and wanted to confirm if Power BI can support the requirement I have.

I need to extract data from mySQL for the creation of the report. Have therefore installed the desktop version of Power BI.

I then need to create reports that are to be embedded in our website that users will access using their supplied User ID and password.

Additionally, the same report needs to be displayed for different users based on the institution from where they are logging on. So if they log on from University X then they need to be displayed data for University X. The report is the same but the data is different. Do I need to create different reports for all the institutions separately or can this be dynamic and I just create one report?

Also, can Power BI reports support filtering by time? So if I want can I see data for a month/year etc.

Can you please help e out here.

The use of Power BI is very crucial because of it being a powerful business analytic tool. I myself being a techie like to read such blog posts and after reading this I truly appreciate it. I don’t intend to question the blogger’s knowledge but I want to do some sharing of knowledge with you all and hence here I am about o post something which is one of the important aspects of Power BI:
