PowerBI embedding and licensing models

FernandoRodas — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 21:38:39 GMT

Hi! I'm new to PowerBi and I'm a little confused about PowerBi licensing models and "capabilities".

What we are looking for is to develop a web visualization tool for our customers. I have a PowerBi Pro license, and a Fabric trial. A while ago managed to create a simple report, schedule automatic refresh to the semantic model and publish a view in a way that needs no authentication (a link in an iframe that looks like https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=....), because that is managed in our website.

My first question is that capabilities came from the PowerBi Pro license itself or the Fabric trial?

The second one is, after working in the backend/frontend development, I tried to generate another report in that way and got stuck trying to get a "non authentication" link, so is there a better/simpler approach to what we are looking for?

Thanks in advance,

Fernando

Hi @FernandoRodas ,

Based on your question, here are the answers based on my understanding

1. Publishing views in a way that does not require authentication (links in iframes that look like https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=....) Are these features from the PowerBi Pro license itself or from the Fabric trial version?

According to the description of the documentation and my understanding, the method you use to publish this report is “Publish to web”, which should come from the PowerBi Pro license, you can easily refer to this documentation

Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

2. After working on the backend/frontend development, I'm trying to generate another report this way, but I'm having trouble trying to get the “non-authenticated” link, so is there a better/simpler way to accomplish what we're looking for?

You can refer to the Embed sample scenario: Embed for customer, provided by Power BI, to check if it can be adapted to your front-end development environment.
