Hi,

 

I am using Power Automate desktop to automate the export to excel capability in Power BI table visualization. The Power BI report is embedded in a canvas PowerApps.

I am not able to capture (spy) the power bi report elements. Which action in Power Automate desktop should I use to achieve this?

 

Thank You

    Why would you want to use PAD to do this? Can't you just have some scheduled task in Power BI to send the output to you via email or something?
