If you’re unsure where to find the Marketplace, or how you can add the content within to your network, please see this guide.
How to Set Up the Power BI App
You can configure the Power BI App within your library, or you can drag it into a Playlist. From there you can double click on the App to open its properties.
The first box you can see is the ‘Content to Embed’ section. You can follow the steps below to populate this box.
- Navigate to https://app.powerbi.com/
- Enter your Login details
- Open your project
- Select File, then Embed Report, then Publish to Web (Public)
- PowerBI will then generate an embed link
- Copy the URL under "Link you can send in an email"
- Add this URL to the Content to Embed field of the PowerBI Widget
Once you’ve added the URL, you can configure the other properties:
- Allow Widget to Refresh - This will refresh according to the time you set as the Refresh Interval
- Refresh Interval (mins) - How often you’d like it to refresh.
- You can also set any other Conditions or Scheduling options.
That’s it! You can save your Playlist to update, and go to the Publish section to make it live across your screens.
