ckanext-power-bi

CKAN Extentsion for Power BI itegration. This plugin provides a new Resource View called Power BI. This plugin is meant for viewing Power BI Reports only. As such, all embed tokens are only generated with View permissions. This also means that the panes inside of the embedded reports will be limited to the View Only panes (exception for the Bookmarks pane, for any existing Report Bookmarks).
