PBI Export to File - Workspace

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,

I am trying to export a report in Power BI using Power Automate. The report is in my personal workspace and I have a Pro license. When I run the "Export to File for Power BI Reports step, I get a "Forbidden" error. I am having trouble finding the issue. One thing I see is the report might need to be in a premium workspace. Is that the case? If so, do I need to upgrade my license to Premium or Premium Per User? 

Thank you!

    Hi , @ADMSFT 

    Export Power BI report to file in Power Automate use the Power BI Rest API. 

    And you need to meet this License requirements:

    The report you're exporting must reside in a workspace backed by a Premium, Embedded, or Fabric capacity.

     

    For more information, you can refer to :
