PowerBI costs in production

[lado]

I would like to know, how can I calculate the costs PowerBI Embed with REST API.

I am going to use PowerBI as a part of our Web Application to let customers analyse/visualise data from our software.

Something like:

PowerBI embed app owns data

So there will be one report admin (who can admin dashboards, reports, ...) = PowerBI Pro Licence 10$/month, right? And how much should I calculate for the viewing reports, which will be embedded in our product. Are there any limits concerning traffic. I mean, how oft can be one dashboard visualized per hour? And wenn yes, can we extend this? Like buying extra servis plan?

Hi there, below is a link where it details what the pricing is for Power BI Embedded. And it is based on your Max Page Renders at Peak Hour. It also has a definition of what is considered a Page Render.

A page render is counted any time Power BI visuals are loaded on a page. A page refresh counts as a page render, as does any other page interactivity, like slice and dice, filtering, etc. Typically, multiple queries running on the backend cores1 translate to a page render.

Thanks guavaq, but this is not exactly the scenario what I am searching for. PowerBI Premium is too much expensiv for our needs. And PowerBI Embedded with 5$/100 Sessions very costs unpredictable. I just want to embed PowerBI in our website with Power BI Embedded REST and let the users of our website to watch their data as much they want. And I am asking what are the costs for viewing such a embedded dashboard/reports? Are there any limits of view requests or number of embedded dashboards/reports?

As an example:

There are 10 users logged in our website, where is embeded PowerBI dashboard.  Like in this example: example

There are two possibilities.

1) 10 users are using one PowerBI Pro Account to access PowerBI. 10$/month

2) Each user of our website  must have PowerBI Pro Accout. So I need 10 PowerBI Pro Accounts? 10*10$/month

Hi @lado

If you read through the whitepaper there are smaller Embedded sizes for Power BI, which are not premium. They are E1- E3
