Sharing Power BI Visualization with Third party users

Hi

Recently I got a request from the business, they want to share a Power BI visualisation with the client. My company has Premium Licence, however the client doesn't want to pay for a licence and the client doesn't have an Office 365 Licence

 

I believe we could use the Power BI Embedded service which provides a dedicated workspace for each client. The service generates a App Id and Workspace Id to be used for the web to embedded the visualisation. My question is any posiblity to achieve this using SharePoint iframe ? and how the user authorisation works in SP ?

 

Please remember, user doesn't want to pay for a licence and doesn't have  365 Licence

 

Also I need to understand when a client has a 365 licence this means we can add the client into our B2B and share the reports with them ? do they require the Power BI licence ?

 

Any ideas of how we can achieve this will be greatful 

 

Kind Regards

 

Isabel

Hi,

 

Yes, you are right, you can use Power BI Embedded Service for this goal.

As I remember, you should store somewhere an access token and a refresh token to orginize a process.

I believe, that Sharepoint has tools to communicate with APIs.

Unfortunately, I am not an expert in Sharepoint to solve this issue.

You should ask in that thread -- may be there you will get an answer.

 

Kind Regards,
