Adding a Power BI report to SharePoint allows you to easily share interactive visualizations and insights with your team or organization. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:

  1. Publish your Power BI report to the Power BI service. This can be done by following these steps:
    • Open your report in Power BI Desktop.
    • Click on the “Publish” button on the Home tab.
    • Choose the location where you want to publish the report (e.g., My Workspace or a specific workspace).
    • Wait for the report to be published to the Power BI service.
  2. Once the report is published, navigate to the SharePoint page where you want to embed the report.
  3. Switch to the SharePoint page edit mode.
  4. Add a new “Page” or “Web Part” to the SharePoint page. The specific method may vary depending on your SharePoint version and configuration.
  5. Locate and click on the “Power BI” option to add a Power BI Web Part to the page.
  6. In the web part properties, select “Embed a report” as the web part type.
  7. Copy the embed code of the Power BI report from the Power BI service. This can be done by following these steps:
    • Open the published report in the Power BI service.
    • Click on the “File” menu.
    • Choose the “Embed” option.
    • Copy the generated embed code.
  8. Paste the copied embed code into the web part configuration in SharePoint.
  9. Adjust any additional settings or properties for the Power BI Web Part, such as the size or appearance of the embedded report.
  10. Save and exit the SharePoint page edit mode.
  11. The Power BI report will now be embedded and visible on the SharePoint page for all authorized users to view and interact with.
