Power BI PDF Export with dynamic Security filter using power automate.

Hi Team,

I have created a Power BI PDF export through power automate for a power bi report having multiple pages. Have added export button on each page where user can download the PDF file on click of a button. This report is embedded in an application through Java integration. 

  • When a user login to application (Note – Client id filter is applied through java), user can see data for selected client only where the user has permissions to see the data (due to RLS – created through User email id)
  • Problem is when dashboard data is filtered due to RLS but in export User gets data for all client ids.


These are the steps I have followed:

  • From the first step a HTTP URL is generated that is used in Power BI Desktop

  • Second Step exporting PPT , added User, dataset and RLS details in identities. Not sure what to add in Identityblob Blob Value – 1* (Bottom) which is a mandatory field.

Need a solution where user should only get data for selected client id in the export or alternatively current state of the report can be exported as an image.

    then the user's email address would need to feed the RLS filter for USERPRINCIPALNAME

    Dynamic RLS it is.

    What type of RLS, dynamic or static?  In the latter case you can use the Roles parameter for the export.  The client would have to go into the report filters section.
