changing share URL on power bi report that is embedded in public site

[hhernandez27]

Hello,

Is it possible to change the "share URL" on a Power BI report that is embedded on a public website? currently the share URL displays the parent site but I would like it to display the site that the Power BI report is embedded on.

thanks,

Hector

Has anyone found a working solution for this?

You can add referrerpolicy Attribute to the iframe: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_iframe_referrerpolicy.asp.

To share the link of the child page the report is on use “no-referrer-when-downgrade” like this:

<iframe referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" width="600" height="373.5" src="https://..." frameborder="0" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>

I added the referrerpolicy attribute with the no-referrer-when-downgrade value to the iframe and it did not change the share URL, although setting it to no-referrer takes the same link that the iframe uses as src

Has anyone found a solution to this? I am encountering the same issue with the share URL being trimmed to be just the domain of the site the report is embedded in. It's a WordPress site so I don't know if that is common with the issue encountered by @hhernandez27 

If the report is accessed directly (i.e. not via the iFrame) the share links work fine, so it appears something is being passed through the iFrame to override the share URL

Hi @hhernandez27 

Is your URL on the embed report interface, right ?

If you are talking about this URL, that is it. This is the website where the Power BI report is located . This is the result after I opened the URL .

thank you. yes that is the "share URL" i am talking about, which is on the embed report interface. However, the "share URL" on my embed report interface is  https://www1.nyc.gov/ but my embed report is located at https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/about/datafeeds.shtml#trafficcounts. The "share URL" should be https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/about/datafeeds.shtml#trafficcounts and not https://www1.nyc.gov/ . see below. are you saying i cannot change the "share url" to https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/about/datafeeds.shtml#trafficcounts??

Hi @hhernandez27 

When you click share in report , you will see “copy link” in the "share URL" popup ,after you clicking “Copy link ”,you will see the share URL . This is provided directly by the Power BI Service, and there is no way to modify it

Hi Ailsa,

i think there might be some confusion. I dont mean the share URL to embed the report somewhere or the URL to share the report as you are thinking of. I mean the URL in the popup of the image below which is https://www1.nyc.gov/. I circled the URL I am speaking of in a red circle in the image below. Can I change https://www1.nyc.gov/ to https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/about/datafeeds.shtml#trafficcounts , which is the website of where the power BI report exists? thanks,

Hi @hhernandez27 

You cannot change the URL for the shared report . The URLs for the shared report and embedded report are also different .In Service , Sharing and embedding belong to two different functions .

There is still a bit of confusion here

The query is not about changing the share URL, it's that when a report is embedded (e.g. Publish to Web) the share buttons such as for Twitter and Facebook have a trimmed URL behind them. This is an issue for the end user, not anything in the Power BI Service
