Manually create user in power bi account

Krunalbpatel — Thu, 30 Jun 2016 11:10:55 GMT

Hi,

I need to create user manually using code in my power bi pro account. I can add new users from the admin center but I want to create user manually using code or powershell or any other way. Is this possible to create user manually in power bi account?

Please help me in this

Thanks...

You can create users in Azure AD with PowerShell:

https://www.petri.com/use-powershell-create-assign-licenses-office-365-users

The last one includes assigning a license as I expect you would need to create the user account and then assign a Power BI license to it.
