Python and Power BI Desktop

[dangermaus33]

I want to use Python to automate tasks in Power BI Desktop (i.e. open a Power BI Desktop workbook, filter a report, save a workbook, publish a workbook to Power BI Online, etc.). Power BI Desktop has some integration with Python but from what I can tell it is focused on importing data, and creating and controlling visuals. I want to control an existing workbook that already has visuals etc.

Does anyone know if python has any libraries for working with Power BI Desktop?

I found this one but it seems like it is for the Power BI Online service and not the desktop client.
https://pypi.org/project/python-power-bi/

If there isn't a library for the desktop app, does anyone know of other ways I can automate tasks in Power BI Desktop?

Yes, there are several libraries available for working with Power BI Desktop in Python, including:

powerbi-python: A library for programmatically managing and manipulating Power BI resources, such as datasets and reports.
powerbi-py: A Python wrapper for the Power BI REST API that allows you to interact with Power BI resources from Python.
python-pptx: A library for creating and updating PowerPoint (.pptx) files, which can be used to generate reports in Power BI.
It is worth noting that Power BI also has its own Python library, powerbi, which can be used to do things like getting data from data sources, and creating visualizations.
