Key Takeaways

Allows you to display HTML in its original style and formatting.
Minor formatting can be applied to the overall output.

This HTML Viewer shows the HTML from my blog rendered on a Power BI report.

Under the Format paintbrush there are only a few configurations that can be adjusted on this visual.
Under the Content Formatting section you can determine if you want to display the formatting from the HTML code and you could use Power BI to apply formatting the the results instead.

You can also adjust the background color, add a border around the visual and lock the aspect ratio under the Format section.
