PBRS is a third-party tool that enhances the functionality of Power BI reports by providing advanced features for scheduling, automation, and distribution. With PBRS, you can:
- Schedule Power BI reports to run at specific dates and times, or set up recurring schedules based on custom frequencies. For example, you can schedule a report to run every hour, every other day, or on the third Monday of the month.
- Automate Power BI reports to run based on specific events or conditions. For example, you can trigger a report to run when a database record is changed, when data is received on a port, when an unread email exists in a folder, or if a file exists.
- Distribute Power BI reports in various formats and to multiple destinations. You can specify different filters, formats (such as Excel, PDF, or CSV), destinations (such as email, SharePoint, or network folders), and recipients for each scheduled report. This flexibility enables you to tailor the distribution of reports to meet the specific needs of your organization.
PBRS works seamlessly with various Power BI environments, including Power BI Service (Pro and PPU), Power BI Report Server (On-Premises), Power BI Premium, and all editions of SQL Server Reporting Services
