The ability to full screen web embedded Power BI visualizations like YouTube allows for videos or open the visual in another tab. In the Best Report Contest (January 2016) you link to contestant entries that are embedded in web pages in the Power BI site. The visual were hard to read and navigate in their embedded state. It wasn't readily apparent on how to enlarge the embedded visualization (no icon in the bottom bar). I had to inspect the code in the page to find the http reference link that allowed a full screen visualization.

We've added the show full screen option for Publish to web reports. You'll now find a new icon on the bottom right of the embed that takes your report full screen. If you have an existing embed code, it will open the report in a new browser tab. If you create a new iFrame you'll see that we include the allowfullscreen="true" attribute on the iFrame so it can open in place. If you add this attribute to your existing embed codes it will open the report full screen in place as well. Thank you for using Power BI and keep the suggestions coming! -Lukasz

Dear Lukasz,

Is there also a possibility to open a dashboard directly in full screen mode?
And then also without the bottom menu bar?

We would like to have screens to start automations with the full screen views of a dashboard.

RE: Full screen mode for web embedded Power BI visualizations

I would really like my report to always present in fullscreen mode. I haved added a style change to 'focus on content' ... but ultimately loading to fullscreen gives the report and user a better experience. Any way to have a change to get rid of the allow ... and just have fullscreen='true' ?
