Could Databricks app support the integration of Genei Room and Power BI?

Is it possible: a Databricks App embedding Power BI ? Rather than placing Genie inside Power BI, place Power BI inside Databricks. A Databricks App (React or Streamlit) hosts native Genie chat alongside a Power BI report embedded via the JavaScript SDK.

  • Databricks App using the AppKit Genie plugin (GenieChat, useGenieChat, SSE streaming, conversation persistence) or the SDK directly
  • Power BI Embedded in embed-for-your-organization mode (user-owns-data) with Entra ID
  • App registration in Entra and workspace permissions in Power BI
  • Hosting and application lifecycle ownership

Hi @fjrodriguez 

The short answer is yes, its possible and I would recommend using React framework for Databricks Apps, as both AppKit and Power BI JavaScript SDK are browser oriented JavaScript components. 

You need to keep in mind that despite having both Genie and Power Bi embedded inside a single app, they both have operate in two separate authentication/authorization surfaces, not one shared semantic context. There isnt currently a native integration between Genie and Power BI.
