After generating an iFrame link and embedding it within a site, I would like to see an export option within the iFrame

Can be done using the new Export to file REST API

RE: Export from Embedded iFrame

YES, please add this. I love the 'look' of PowerBI, but the inability to print or export data from outside of the service is a big value killer.

I can't print a report from within the desktop app, and I can't export the data from the embedded iframe - so how on earth am I supposed to actually USE/share the data??

Also, not being able to copy/paste makes it even less useful.

RE: Export from Embedded iFrame

We are a big practice solution firm and also need this option urgently. Users need to deal with the data after viewing, and this is best done in Excel. Can you please also include the report Header/Title in the file when exported to xlsx? Thanks

RE: Export from Embedded iFrame

One thing I will add is that export does not seem to be supported in a iframe with a webview. We have a uwp app that we are using embedded in and the only way to get the export to fire is to link out to the browser from webview. This has been a fairly big hassel since essentially users have to navigate through the report twice to export data. Can we expect webview support?

In my testing both on my data and https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/index.html the CSV export via elipsis works but the xlsx option does nothing.
