M-Files Power BI Reports

The updated sample is here: MFilesSamplesAndLibraries/Samples/UIX Applications/PowerBI at master · M-Files/MFilesSamplesAndLibraries (github.com)

Hello Graig,

Could you explain what is ? "M-Files.PowerBI.URL" in mfshell.js

var urlid = shellFrame.ShellUI.Vault.PropertyDefOperations.GetPropertyDefIDByAlias( "M-Files.PowerBI.URL" );

Regards

Sébastien

It is the alias associated with a property in M-Files.  The property contains the URL to the report.

Should this still work? I cannot get the "View Report" to show up. I've used this before so I know how it should work.

I just had a quick look and it seems to still work.

You need to have an object type in the vault with alias "M-Files.PowerBI.Report".  You need to create an object of that type and make sure that it has a (text) property with alias "M-Files.PowerBI.URL" on it.  When you select this object you should see a command in the task area, and one in the context menu, allowing you to open the report in a browser.

Not in my test environment.
