    Hi,

    I am using REST APIs for creating report and embed into iframe of my web page. But it seems this approach has very limited functionality as per my experience.

    I would like to use following functionality:

    - Apply filters by querying on data on the fly
    - I want to use scheduled refresh using Power BI while connecting to the MySQL database.

    Please let me know your suggestions, if I am missing something here.

    You can definitely apply filters on the fly using the PowerBI-Javascript client ;-) I've done it in Javascript and Typescript.
