Embedded tool authentication error

I'm using the Power BI onboarding Embed tool (https://app.powerbi.com/embedsetup/appownsdata) and the sample code.  When I try to access the Power BI report I get the message below (Unauthorized 401)...

Jayendran, I finally managed to get an Admin to grant consent. Unfortunately, I'm getting the error:

 

Error Status: Unauthorized (401) Response: RequestId: 6336bc11-f5fd-4c25-a490-319ff32748eb

Hi Anonymous 

Pls check whether the user account is the Admin of the workspace. 

 

401 means usually you don't have permission to the workspace.

 

Possbile solution would be 

  • Check your user account is the Admin of the workspace
  • Verify that you are passing the workspace id correctly

    Jayendran @, you were right, somehow the workspace id was incorrect! It now works in debugging!

     

    Unfortunately, I get the following error when accessing the deployed app url. I find this confusing as multi-factor authentication has been disabled.

     

    Error AADSTS50076: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access '00000009-0000-0000-c000-000000000000'.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Somehow you have a policy in your Azure Active Directory which doesn't allow a user login without a MFA. Please contact your Azure Active Directory team and check them with this error.

     

    Meanwhile I'd recommedn you to use a Service Principal(SPN) Approach rather than master account approach. Beacuse SPN is the best approach going forward.

     

    Reference for SPN:
