问题
Is there a way using power bi rest API in node js, I watched video ,Ran Breuer and Arina Hantsis were showing the demo here,Setting up and Getting Started with Power BI Embedded I want to achieve same but using node js, in our development environment we do not use c#. I found the Node SDK but it saying we no longer support node SDK,Node SDK
Do I have to change development structure from Node js to c# in order to use power bi Rest API!!
回答1:
If you want to achieve same, what Ran Breuer and Arina Hantsis demonstrate in there video!
you can use these codes...
after reading the documentation, I come up with this solution it took me 5 days to figure out, anyway I am posting here so everyone can have easy access to codes.
**AppOwnData Power bi embedded reports **
Controller.js
const request = require('request');
const getAccessToken = function () {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
const url = 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/token';
const username = ''; // Username of PowerBI "pro" account - stored in config
const password = ''; // Password of PowerBI "pro" account - stored in config
const clientId = ''; // Applicaton ID of app registered via Azure Active Directory - stored in config
const headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
};
const formData = {
grant_type: 'password',
client_id: clientId,
resource: 'https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api',
scope: 'openid',
username: username,
password: password
};
request.post({
url: url,
form: formData,
headers: headers
}, function (err, result, body) {
if (err) return reject(err);
const bodyObj = JSON.parse(body);
resolve(bodyObj.access_token);
});
});
};
const getReportEmbedToken = function (accessToken, groupId, reportId) {
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
const url = 'https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/' + groupId + '/reports/' + reportId + '/GenerateToken';
const headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + accessToken
};
const formData = {
'accessLevel': 'view'
};
request.post({
url: url,
form: formData,
headers: headers
}, function (err, result, body) {
if (err) return reject(err);
const bodyObj = JSON.parse(body);
resolve(bodyObj.token);
});
});
};
module.exports = {
embedReport: function (req, res) {
getAccessToken().then(function (accessToken) {
getReportEmbedToken(accessToken, req.params.groupId, req.params.reportId).then(function (embedToken) {
res.render('index', {
reportId: req.params.dashboardId,
embedToken,
embedUrl: 'https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=' + req.params.reportId + '&groupId=' + req.params.groupId
});
}).catch(function (err) {
res.send(500, err);
});
}).catch(function (err) {
res.send(500, err);
});
}
};
Your router index.js
const express = require('express'),
router = express.Router(),
mainCtrl = require('../controllers/MainController');
router.get('/report/:groupId/:reportId', mainCtrl.embedReport);
module.exports = router;
index.ejs or what ever you like
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Node.js PowerBI Embed</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" />
<style>
html,
body {
height: 100%;
}
.fill {

box-sizing: border-box;
}
#reportContainer {
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
display: block;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container-fluid fill">
<div id="reportContainer"></div>
</div>
<script src="/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="/powerbi-client/dist/powerbi.js"></script>
<script>
const models = window['powerbi-client'].models;
const config = {
type: 'report',
tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,
accessToken: '<%- embedToken %>',
embedUrl: '<%- embedUrl %>',
id: '<%- reportId %>'
};
// Get a reference to the embedded dashboard HTML element
const reportContainer = $('#reportContainer')[0];
// Embed the dashboard and display it within the div container.
powerbi.embed(reportContainer, config);
</script>
</body>
</html>
Finally Enjoy
localhost:4000/report/put your group id here / put you report id here

I used @Joyo Waseem codes and successfully embedded the report, then I give a try to embed Dashboard and it works too, I decided to post my codes here so anyone who tries to embed Dashboard can use these codes.

@Jo Joy what is the seen you should know .
https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-Node/issues/40
It about priorities these company decide in which project they do .
They can response very well about this. But as far as discussion there are no such plan to do so . You can access api before feb 2017 .
If newer api you have to try it for your . May be you folk it . We as commundity will contribute .
回答4:
They no longer support the Node SDK, but have you tried it? It might still be working. You are gonna want some sort of SDK - it seems that is not the easiest API to work with.
