    Hi lh9000 I finally discovered a solution provided by Microsoft What's new in the Power BI add-in for PowerPoint - Power BI | Microsoft Learn. On March this year they created a new functionality for static images that allows you to choose if you want this static images to be available to everyone even without access to Power BI reports or only available to people with access granted to the Power BI reports. To have access to this you just need to press the Live Data button in the bottom left corner of your embed report and choose either public snapshot or just snapshot, then save your Power Point. When you open it again it will load as an image.

    More information in detail in the link I provide above.

    Hope this helps everyone.
