Microsoft's Power BI platform creates a data-driven culture with business intelligence for all. It enables everyone at every level of your organization to make confident decisions using up-to-the-minute analytics.
The WireBootstrap for Power BI solution allows data, meta data, and visualizations in Power BI to be easily used inside custom web applications. These Power BI elements can sit next to and even talk to any other component on web pages developed with Bootstrap themes and their components using WireBootstrap.
The WireBootstrap for Power BI solution starts with a WireBootstrap data connector that can talk to Power BI using the Power BI REST APIs. The WireBootstrap for Power BI REST API Data Connector allows lists of meta data such as dashboards and reports to be displayed inside WireBootstrap components other page elements with minimal configuration.
The data connector also serves data to WireBootstrap for Power BI embed components.
The WireBootstrap for Power BI Tile Component for Power BI uses Power BI's client embed APIs to embed tiles from dashboards as individual visualizations. These visualizations can then be used as independent WireBootstrap components in custom web applications that listen for data changes on a page. Once data represented in some part of a visualization has changed, the WireBootstrap for Power BI Tile Component will send the changes to Power BI and have the visualization refreshed in place on the page.
The WireBootstrap for Power BI solution installs with a sample application that demonstrates how to use the different elements of the solution. This includes sample code to generate a security token to be used with both the WireBootstrap REST API data connector and WireBootstrap embed components.
