Export Power BI Report to PNG Direct Query

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello Team,

 

I am trying to Export as PNG format for one of my Power BI report and send email. Flow is running fine.

 

Export to File for Power BI Reports > Send an Email V2.

I've got two reports connected to the dataset. 
The thing is one of the report has only one data source ( feed with dataset) and the other report is also using Direct Query.

While exporting the 1st report to png and sending embedded picture via email it works fine.
When exporting the 2nd report to png I receive only empty visuals.

Is the DQ export supported?
Thank you for your help in advance!

    Hey,

    There is a method to bypass it. That is not what I expect to achieve but maybe someone will use it.
    We could make a subscription > save the PNG file on our SP > take the image in the P.Automate flow and embed in our email.

    I am also experiencing this. I made a lot of tests, and it works just fine with Live connection to Power BI dataset, Direct query to SQL server or import mode, but as soon as I make a composite model and click that button to "create local model" it starts failing.

    Haven't found any solution yet.
