Connecting to database on Client network using Power BI Desktop.
Hi,
We have the requirement to build Power BI reports for our client, making connecting to SSAS database on Client network, they have created a domain account and granted necessary permissions to Cubes on SSAS databse. they asked us to login to Power BI desktop on our network using the domain account they have created.
Client has given us logins.
- Domain login : Which has necessary permissions to the cube.
- Power BI Login : Which is able to use through portal to view the reports built on there Power BI Portal.
My question is , is it possible to make a connection from our network through Power BI desktop to cubes on SSAS database/SQL Database on the Client network.
Thank You,
Praveen
