Microsoft's official developer resources for Power BI Embedded, centered on the powerbi-client JavaScript library that renders Power BI reports, dashboards, and tiles inside web applications, paired with a samples repository of full embedding solutions. It includes App-Owns-Data and User-Owns-Data reference implementations across .NET, Node.js, Python, Java, and React, plus Power BI REST API and credential-encryption examples.
Use cases
- embed power bi reports in my web app
- show power bi dashboards to my customers in a saas application
- generate embed tokens for power bi reports
- integrate power bi embedding with nodejs, python, or java backend
- render powerbi visuals in a react application
- call power bi rest api from powershell
- app owns data vs user owns data embedding example
When to choose
- You need to embed existing Power BI content (reports, dashboards, tiles) into your own web application
- You want Microsoft-maintained SDK code plus multi-language reference implementations of embed tokens, credential encryption, and data source updates
- You are building multi-tenant analytics for customers (App Owns Data) or internal org-facing embeds (User Owns Data)
When to avoid
- You want to build custom charts from scratch rather than display Power BI-authored content
- You need an open-source BI stack or a standalone dashboarding product instead of the Microsoft Power BI ecosystem
- You are looking for a production service itself - these are SDKs and sample solutions, not a self-contained deployable product
