Smartlinks to Power BI Reports

[#1]

I truly just discovered smartlinks (Shame on me) . Did you know you can embed (link to) your Power BI Reports directly into confluence?

@David Nickell : Nice !!! Anything special we need to configure, because when I try to insert a Smart link it says: "We can’t display this link as an embed, just as a card".

So what I am linking to is a Power BI Report I published to the Web.  This is a tad risky given there is no security in this situation.  That said -- the next "phase" of this process would be to figure out accessing secure reports.

In the meantime -- it goes like this:

1. From a Power BI Report you have at PowerBI . com, Publish to the Web
2. You will get a few data exposure warnings.
3. Then use the first link you see (the one you can email) as your smartlink.

feel free to use the REST ENDPOINTS report I just published to test with one of my reports for troubleshooting.  (if my URL works and yours doesn't, you'll know it is on your Power BI side)

Oh - make sure you have enabled smartlinks for your space..  the report is not IN a page though it appears that way.
