Getting PowerBi on office screen

[hedin123]

Hello all! 🙂 

I have created some dashboards for a company. Now they want it on a screen. The dashboard is loading data from an excel file within the company server folder. 

My idea is to have a monitor/tv-screen with a Mini-pc behind the monitor. Is there any specific requirements I should think about? I was thinking to use this as a gateway as well when published. The company asks me if they should buy a TV + a PC for the TV. I'm just worried if there's some part which I am not thinking about.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @hedin123 

A smart TV should do the work. The company will only need to connect to the service in the internet on the TV.

for refresh, a Gateway needs to be installed on premises to do the work.

For maintenance, of course a PC(Remote and/or local) will be needed.

Hello @aj1973

Thanks for your answer! 

What if I want to show it as a slideshow on the tv? 🙂 If I have several pages and I want it to slide through maybe 15 seconds each?

Best Regards,
