Power BI App properties can be shown in the Layout or ViewApp editors by placing the Power BI App on a layout pane. After selecting the app on a pane, its properties appear on the Properties page by functional groups.
To assign values to the Power BI App properties, you will need the following:
-
Name of the security credential created for the Power BI report
-
Workspace ID created when publishing a Power BI report
-
Report ID created when publishing a Power BI report
If any property is assigned an invalid value, an error message appears when the Power BI App initially loads at runtime.

For more information about the error, see the System Platform logger.
