It would be nice if there is an option to have a scheduled export of a report to PDF. A nice to have feature would be to directly e-mail it to people so they are being notified of the latest report.

In addition to the support we have for paginated reports already, we have started the work to support this for Power BI reports and expect it to land by the end of the calendar year in the Power BI service. Like for paginated reports, it will be a Premium feature and will be available to customers with either Premium capacity or if you have the new Premium per user license, which will be available at no cost to all users during the public preview period. You can read more about getting priority access to the public preview for your tenant at this link - https://powerbi.microsoft.com/blog/priority-access-sign-up-for-power-bi-premium-per-user-public-preview-now-available/

RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
will this new version will allow to send report by an admin to a list of groups with RLS?
Will the image on secure on-premise servers will be show on the PDF export (currently not the case when we do a PDF or PPT export) where our images are only available when using PBI service or desktop
thank you

While completing this, it would be nice to have the URL filters respected when you choose Current Values for your exported.

We also need to automate exporting visual data to csv. Our report has scrollbar, export to pdf shows only a small portion of the data.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
We started with PowerBI Pro and didnt even think about having this function; we thoughts thats absolutely standard - ecspecially if you guys call it the "Power Platform" with Automate and so on.
Its unbelievable, that an automatic export to csv and then mailed / moved on to ftp, onedrive whatever is not possible. This is an showstopper for us and - if we cant find any 3th party solution - we have to move on to another BI solution. I really dont understand how you guys could "forget" this feature.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Scheduled exporting of data from Power Bi in Excel will be highly beneficial, especially when connecting to two or more data sets is not possible. Information from one report using a data set could be easily incorporated into another report if this export was automated.
Please consider adding this feature.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
This will be really beneficial as people are looking for a "hard copy" file that can be run before an automated update for audit reasons.
