Power BI Report Server: Sharing reports with External User
Hi d_gosbell ,
Thank you for the information you provided above.
I'm currently looking into a work around solution through which an External User can view a report saved on the report server.
Question, Is there a possibility that we could get the username and password of a built-in User within the Query Parameter in the Report URL?
So, Query Parameter in the URL such that the report opens up already logged in (And you are not required to enter any login credentials).
Kindly request your support. Thanks in Advance!

You could maybe use this technique https://serverfault.com/questions/371907/can-you-pass-user-pass-for-http-basic-authentication-in-url-parameters if you switched on basic authentication. But doing that would disable the windows authentication, so everyone in your organization would have to type in their username/password every time they access the Report Server.
