Converting PowerPoint with Power BI reports into a PDF - Charts not loaded

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 147
Good day all,
 
I have an issue with the following; converting a PPTX file with several Power BI graphs into a PDF.
 
However, when the file is converted (using Adobe PDF in Power Automate), it doesn't properly load all graphs correctly in all slides. See here one of the later slides:
 
If I manually load the graphs and save them in advance, it does load them, but that defeats the purpose of automating the process. Users we informed to load all slides in advance, so they would load properly, but that hasn't worked as hoped. This could be either due to incorrect loading or the automation just not working properly.
 
Does anyone have any help on how to combat this issue?

    HI,
     
    Yeah an issue is it won't force them to show, or refresh them for you, so I would recommend using the Power BI Refresh action.
     
    that being said, can you try the Convert File (not the Adobe PDF Conversion) actino to see if it works better.

    I have the same issue. Have you found an automated work around?
