So far in this chapter, we've talked about data publication. There are several ways to consume Power BI dashboards and reports:
- Web browser: This the most common way to consume the data when we are provided a valid URL for the reports.
- Power BI mobile: This is a client application (app) that is available for Windows 10, iOS, and Android. It has the capability to connect to Power BI on the cloud or on premises to a Power BI report Server. It is optimized for tablet and touchscreen usage.
- Power BI embedded: This allow us to integrate Power BI dashboards and reports in custom applications. They are mainly used by ISVs and developers to distribute their reports from inside their applications.
Having all of these possibilities to consume dashboards and reports gives us more flexibility when we design modern BI solutions.
