I am looking for a tool or utility that can help generate an RDL (Report Definition Language) file for Power BI Report Builder based on an image or report mockup.
My requirement:
I have a static image (report layout / design mockup).
I want to convert or replicate this design into an RDL file automatically or semi-automatically.
The goal is to reduce manual effort in designing reports in Power BI Report Builder.
What I’ve tried:
Manually recreating the layout in Power BI Report Builder, which is time-consuming.
Looked for automation tools but couldn’t find anything specific.
What I’m looking for:
Any tool, library, or approach that can convert an image/mockup into an RDL file.
Even partial automation (layout generation, structure detection, etc.) would be helpful.
Questions:
Is there any existing tool or service that supports this?
Are there any APIs or frameworks that can help generate RDL programmatically from a design?
What would be the best approach to achieve this if no direct tool exists?
Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
