What is an "embedded" Power BI report?

An embedded Power BI report refers to a Power BI report that is integrated directly into another application or website, allowing users to access the report's interactive features without having to navigate to the Power BI service itself. This integration enables a seamless user experience where users can interact with the report's visuals and data within the context of the host application.

Embedding reports is particularly useful for organizations that want to keep their data analytics within existing platforms, providing contextually relevant insights directly where users need them. It enhances usability and promotes broader adoption of data-driven decision-making across different teams or departments.

Other options do not accurately describe the nature of an embedded report. A standalone report refers to a report that exists independently without integration into other systems, while reports with external links simply connect to other web addresses rather than being integrated. A report published to the web indicates that it is accessible via a public link but doesn't necessarily imply integration into another platform.
