Kindly Help.

Hello,

Out of the box you can only embed the reports, the role center can be assigned to users. There may be other partners / MVP's that do have out of the box solution for you that meets your business requirements. I will leave it up to the community to provide further suggestions. Eager as you may be as well, interested to see what is out there.

Thanks.

Proposed answer: Publish a Power BI App

I was searching for the same thing and believe I've found the answer. It seems like when calling the Embedded API, Business Central is doing a check like IF (Workspace App Exists For My User). If there's an App published, the Reports show up. You don't even need the Reports to be part of the App, as long as the App exists the reports show up. I believe the user in question also needs to have the App "installed" for their user.

My guess is this is related to the fact that many times BC Apps are displayed as the default path, which creates a new Workspace. So in effect the App is already published.

The behavior is not consistent with SharePoint and other Dynamics 365 programs.
