Alternate to RedirectURL

[mak82pk]

Integrate a report into an app for your organization (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/integrate-report)

I am following the above example in my MVC 5 application. I will have reports in different URLs. Therefore, I dont want to generate client id for each report  separately and assigned redirect url to get authentication code.

Is there any httpResponse method or way to get the authentication code for example i tried to do something...

  var request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.CreateHttp($"{Properties.Settings.Default.AADAuthorityUri}?{queryString}");
            request.Method = "GET";
            var response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
            //... (initialize more fields)

            using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
            {
                string result = sr.ReadToEnd();
                dynamic o = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(result);
                var token = o.code;
                //   Console.WriteLine("I got Http Status Code: {0}", response.StatusCode);
            }

 so that I can just get the token and pass it to View to display report.

I think you can use one registered app. Just re-direct to the different embedding pages accordingly.

                //After you get an AccessToken, you can call Power BI API operations such as Get Tile
                Session["AccessToken"] = GetAccessToken(
                    Request.Params.GetValues("code")[0],
                    Settings.Default.ClientID,
                    Settings.Default.ClientSecret,
                    Settings.Default.RedirectUrl);

                //Redirect to the embedding page
                Response.Redirect("/embeding page path");

By the way, for any security concern, you'd better mask the user name in the snapshot.
