Secure Embed - Request Access

We have been testing out the new 'secure embed' feature (see screenshot below), but seem to be having a security issue as follows: 
 
 
 
1. We have a private app workspace with a limited number of members.  This workspace is published to an App.  Inside app.powerbi.com, non-members cannot search for or see the App.
 
2. When we used 'secure embed' to post a report from the App to our company intranet, non-members can try to request access (see screenshot below).  Power BI walks them through submitting a request, but the requests are never actually emailed to the report owner.  Is it possible to turn off the "request access" button?
 
  • Over the last few days, it appears that Microsoft has changed the URL line for the secure embed.  Once we updated to the new URLs, non-members are no longer given the option to request access.

     

    One item worth mentioning that we learned in our testing:  you can generate the secure embed code from both the workspace or the app --and the list of members changes accordingly.

  • Hi there

    As far as I currently know, this is not possible to turn this off.
