Power BI - Disable Authenticaton

Laith — Wed, 31 Oct 2018 11:17:53 GMT

Hello ,

Is there a way of work around to disable the windows authentication from the power bi server ? I dont want it at all, it is annoying sicnce my powerbi reports are hosted on a different website, so users have to enter website password then the power bi windows authentication popup ! no need for this at all.

I tried the custom secuirty .NET project, but that didnt work or not what i need, i just need to disable it somehow from the config files of the powerbi server.

Much Appreciated,
Laith

Hello Felix,

In summary , The .dll files in the PBIRS folder has all the required methods you need to pass through without authentication.

Didnt know why microsoft didnt not mention these stuff is it becuase they want the users to focus on Azure only and Clouding Business Solutions!!

Users should differentiate between SSRS and PBIRS and the custom security GITHUB documentation they have posted is only for SSRS .asmx.

After all headache i have solved working arounf with the .dll libraries in PBIRS and finally the NTLM is no longer poping up becuase i fix a user and password to be sent!

Hope that helps !

I will try to put it on Github very SOON called "PBI - Pass through Authentication"

Have a great one!
