There are several methods for controlling a PowerBI report using code, such as:

1. Power BI Embedded: This method allows embedding Power BI reports into your application using APIs and SDKs. This enables developers to use code to control the report's data, interactions, visuals, and other features.

2. Power Automate: This method allows developers to create workflows that can trigger specific actions in the Power BI report using code. For example, you can create a workflow that sends an email notification to the team when a specific report's data changes.

3. Power BI REST API: This method allows developers to interact with the Power BI service programmatically by sending HTTP requests to the Power BI REST API. Using the REST API, developers can manage datasets, reports, dashboards, and other features of the Power BI service.

4. PowerShell: This method allows developers to automate tasks in the Power BI service using PowerShell scripts. With PowerShell, you can manage Power BI reports, datasets, data gateways, and other components using code.
