Embedding paginate reports with dynamic Dataset

[adrianvp]

Hi All,

Hopefully a simple one. We currently embed reports in Power BI into our own application (SaaS solution). We can successfully embed reports with dynamic datasets and RLS. Everything works as expected.

However, we are testing embedding paginated reports which work fine if the dataset provided to the report is that same as the one used to create the report. If we try change the dataset for the paginated report we get the error : Dataset id xxx is requried by report yyy but was not found in generate token request.

Is it possible to use dynamic datasets with paginated reports?

Thanks

Thanks Amos, really appreciate the response. We can stop banging our heads against the wall now 🙂

Hi @adrianvp ,

Unfortunately dynamic binding of a paginated report to a dataset is not a supported feature.

This is  mainly because a dataset is a data source for a paginated report, and there can be more than one dataset for the same paginated report, in oppose to a Power BI report which only has one dataset (directly connected).
