Create dashboard for multiple external customers

I'm trying to build an application to help our external customers to generate dashbords. It means the customer users will be with different domain name such as [email protected], however my account on Power BI will be [email protected]. Also these dashboards should be private to specific customer. The dashboards couldn't be public to all customers.

 

In this case, is it possible we can still user Power BI to build such application? Thanks.

    HI chunyang I have the same issue.

    Sharing data with multiple customers.

     

    Easiest way I discovered was to create user accunts under my domain that they could use Power BI with.

    e.g. [email protected], [email protected].

     

    Allows me to share data with the users and manage their PowerBI logins. You can then share content packs with them or just create the dashboards for them and add them as a user who can view the dashboard.

      Thanks elliotdixon 

       

      MS Power BI already integrated authentication with our company domain. Once I input my email (such as [email protected]) to login, it will call authentication service in my company to sign-in automatically. And For my case, my limitation is that I can't create email account for customer, such as [email protected]. This email account must be an real employee for our company. 

       

      So it looks I have to figure out other approach. Thanks for your sharing!

        I am trying to do the same. I have created a dashboard which has all our customer data in it. I need to restrict other customers from viewing the others data. Did you figure out a way for this.
