License to use export-to-file

[BigLo]

hI?

I want to use the API to do an export-to-file.
I need (at least) a pro license or a PPU license as main user and as authentication user?
I also need a Premium capacity (monthly payment) or an embedded capacity (pay-per-use)?

Is it correct? I am a little lost in the documentation and in the prerequisites.

Hi @BigLo ,

You could upload paginated reports to your My Workspace without a Pro license, provided it's in a Premium Capacity. For other workspaces, you must have a Pro license to author and publish content to them. You could download and use Power BI Report Builder even without the Pro license, but you can't publish the paginated reports you create without it.

Best Regards,

Jay

I forgot to specify that I want to export paginated reports.

Exporttofile

'Limitations: Premium Per User (PPU) is not supported.'

Export Paginated Report
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/export-paginated-report
The exportToFile API allows one request in a five minute window when using Premium Per User (PPU). Multiple (greater than one) requests within a five minute window will result in a Too Many Requests (429) error.
