Create multiple PDFs

Hi, I'm using desktop to create a PDF report on stats for a given location, which works fine, however there are over 2,500 locations in the dataset and I need to produce individual PDF's for each one. 

 

How do you set up an export so that it will create multiple PDFs based on the dataset automatically, without having to individually pull up each of the locations and run an export?  I've tried looking at templates, but it still looks like I'll have to manually load up each location into a template to export it, which is just impractical.

 

Any pointers greatly appreciated...

Hi northernpaul,

 

Unfortnately i'm afraid requirement like "How do you set up an export so that it will create multiple PDFs based on the dataset automatically" is not supported by power bi desktop currently. However, you can export your whole report to PDF in power bi desktop via File-> Export to PDF.
