for GenerateTokenRequest: what is the difference between create and edit accessLevels?

hey all

when embedding pbi - 

we need to use 

GenerateTokenRequest

 

there are 3 accesslevels

view

view is pretty self explanatory

but edit and create seem very similar to me

Hi @toy,

 

The View mode will start with a report while the Create mode will start with a empty canvas. In other words, the Edit mode open a report while the Create mode open a dataset. You can check it out in this demo code.
