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.

Another update on this item - users now have the ability to set up scheduled subscriptions with paginated reports and 6 different formats, along with parameters per subscription to allow further personalization. There is also now the ability to create paginated reports against any Power BI dataset in the service, and we're planning to add drillthrough from Power BI to Paginated Reports in the short term. We still have plans to support e-mail attachments for Power BI reports as well in the coming months, and we'll share more specifics once we get closer to starting that work.

RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Main reason why we gave up from Power BI. If this or export to excel was there, we would use it for sure...
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
It would be more helpful if you add this feature to Power BI Tool. We wanted to save as a report(which is having 3 pages in it) to PDF file. Many users are looking for this feature in out org.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Yes , we are now looking for this feature.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
This would be a great feature to have. This is a mandatory requirement for some organisations. Something similar to nPrinting from Qlik would be ideal.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
This function is key to decide whether we use PowerBI for our service, obviously needed functionality with some limitation of attached data file size like 10 MB in the email.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Absolutely agree.. I think there are several power BI ideas now posted all with the request to export the report as PDF and/or JPEG etc. Would really be handy to have this feature in the desktop version.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
As a part of this, it would be nice to include a timestamp for when the report was printed.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Defeats the purpose of interactive visualisations to hardcode them as pdf.
SSRS is the tool to achieve this outcome.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Add more robust features to scheduling period (snapshot, caching etc...). Something similar to data driven subscriptions in SSRS. I use reporting services for a lot of things where I could use power BI, but the lack of scheduling tools especially email delivery is a reason I don't
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
This feature is required asap, as our current tool sends data to mail box as per the job schedule..
