Please add the capability to export Report Server PowerBI reports to formats like pdf, word, powerpoint. Some of this functionality exists in the service but please add it to Report Server.

We'd hoped we'd have a good way to bring this functionality to the server - however, after a lengthy evaluation of all the options and required investments, we're not planning to bring this feature to the server at this time. As a workaround, we suggest using the Export to PDF capabilities in Power BI Desktop for Report Server.

RE: Export Report Server Power BI report to PDF

Seriously?!? Without the ability to create subscriptions and not being able to export easily to PDF to set up your own its like you want it to be unusable. Are you all really that out of touch with business needs and reality? Someone get an operational executive involved with your steering committee, because you nerds are missing the ball.

RE: Export Report Server Power BI report to PDF

This is bizarre, an exec level visualisation tool which won't allow export of graphics to a pdf pack. We have taken the power bi route now but this is a big blow to its credibility

RE: Export Report Server Power BI report to PDF

This feature (export ot Excel) has to be there. Else Business users will not be using the tool.

RE: Export Report Server Power BI report to PDF

This is very disappointing.
I do not see how a tool can be considered for large, non-cloud orientated, organisations without this kind of feature.
Microsoft you really need to re-think your strategy.
