Usage

const PowerBI = require("cc-powerbi");
const program = new PowerBI.PowerBIEmbeds({
    // Azure Active Directory TenantID
    tenant: 'TENANT_ID',
    
    //The Application ID that the registration portal (apps.dev.microsoft.com) assigned your app.
    client_id: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
    
    //The application secret that you created in the app registration portal for your app.
    client_secret: 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET',
    
    // Dedicated user with read access the PowerBI reports
    username: '[e-mail]',
    password: 'YOUR_PASSWORD'
})

export async function run(params) {
    return await program.run(params);
}

The value of params will be as follows for a report:

{
    type: "report",
    reportID: REPORT_ID,
    workspaceID: REPORT_WORKSPACE_ID
}

The value of params will be as follows for a dashboard:

{
    type: "dashboard",
    dashboardID: DASHBOARD_ID,
    workspaceID: DASHBOARD_WORKSPACE_ID
}
