Power BI report server for external purpose
In my scenario I would like to share reports for external customers through web system in the IFRAME.
Data should be displayed per customer in a secure way.
As far as I recognized Power BI embedded is the way to go.
What about Power BI report server? is it an alternative?
Potentially I could deploy report in my local server and share with IFRAME, but what about filtering data per customer in secure way? can I use RLS in the same way as in embedded - for example in embedded during connection I can add into claim user name, then add this user to specific role on report side to filter query?
Also what about prices:
For embedded new plan start from $625/month where report server seems to starts from $4995/month as part of P1
Could you clarify the questions above?
Thank you

Hi Anonymous,

From this article, we can know that we are not able to define roles within Power BI Desktop for Analysis Services live connections. Since Power BI report being published to SSRS web portal only supports Analysis Services live connections now, you might not use RLS in the same way as in embedded.
For embedded new plan start from $625/month where report server seems to starts from $4995/month as part of P1You can go to this page to calculate the budget for buying Power BI report server: Power BI Premium calculator If you have any concern about the price, please contact the relative support team via clicking the phone button at the bottom of this page.
