Intro:
I want to create a internal website for displaying Power BI graphs and KPI's for internal use.
I just created a new webapp in Azure from the FlaskAzure(python) template. (https://github.com/azureappserviceoss/FlaskAzure)
I also just got access to a free license and am currently testing 1 month free premium version of Power BI.
Power BI: I have created a dashboard as a test, and a report.
Azure Web App: I have just created the FlaskAzure(python) webapp and added SSO(single sign on) connected to AAD(Azure Active Directory).
Azure AAD: I have registered the application for Power BI in AAD using this link: https://dev.powerbi.com/apps
My questions:
I now found a tutorial that seems to just tell me how to add tiles into IFrames. (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-developer-integrate-tile/#steps-to-integrate-a-tile-into-an-app)
1. Can i only add tiles into IFrames? Cant i add it without using IFrames?
2. Is there an example on how to present a tile using flask(python) framework?
Thanks in advance.
1.There seems no way, even in some samples it is using a DIV, the underlying code is actually using an IFrame. What is your concern on IFrame?
2. I have no idea on flask(python) framework, but a tile can be embedded even in static html page. FYI
<html lang="en"><head> <script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
updateEmbedTile();
};
var width = 500;
var height = 500;
// update embed tile
function updateEmbedTile() {
// check if the embed url was selected
var embedTileUrl = "https://msit.powerbi.com/embed?dashboardId=f1f5155b-c6e2-4147-991b-28d914927d05&tileId=50de3c3a-2e8c-49bd-ada4-18d0b1e19415";
if ("" === embedTileUrl)
return;
// to load a tile do the following:
// 1: set the url, include size.
// 2: add a onload handler to submit the auth token
iframe = document.getElementById('iFrameEmbedTile');
iframe.src=embedTileUrl + "&width=" + width + "&height=" + height;
iframe.onload = postActionLoadTile;
}
// post the auth token to the iFrame.
function postActionLoadTile() {
// get the access token.
accessToken = "YOURTOKENHERE";
// return if no a
if ("" === accessToken)
return;
var h = height;
var w = width;
// construct the push message structure
var m = { action: "loadTile", accessToken: accessToken, height: h, width: w};
message = JSON.stringify(m);
// push the message.
iframe = document.getElementById('iFrameEmbedTile');
iframe.contentWindow.postMessage(message, "*");;
}
