Expecting Power BI in the Capable Suite and not finding the macro

What you are seeing

Expecting Power BI in the Capable Suite and not finding the macro.


#Why it happens

Power BI Embed is not part of the Capable Suite. It is a separate app.


#What to do

Install the Power BI Confluence app from the Marketplace. Installing it on a site that already had the re:solution Power BI app is an in-place upgrade, so existing macros keep working.


#Settings involved

What it does

Power BI global settings entry

#Limits that apply here

Limit

Value

What happens

Allowed report hosts

App.powerbi.com and app.fabric.microsoft

Anything else will not render.

Bare report ID format

A standard 36-character UUID

A UUID is turned into https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=<id>&autoAuth=true. It always targets app.powerbi.com, never Fabric.

Scrolling

Off (scrolling="no")

Power BI manages its own scrolling inside the frame, as it did in the original Connect app.


#A few things that catch people out

  • The Power BI global settings entry points at an icon file that does not exist in the repository (only the main icon and an unrelated forms image are present).

  • The same as the other production apps.

  • There is no Power BI showcase page in the Asset Store demo content, by design.



Found it? Good.
