    Hi, Anonymous 

    For Kusto database permissions, you need to click "Sign in" and enter your newly created account to log in.
    Whether to support login with the same account and password as SQL Server requires you to confirm with the database.

    For more information, you can refer to:

Hi , Anonymous 

According to your need , you want to use the other credential to embed the content in Power BI instead of yours.

I think you can try to use the "Service principle" to embed your content in you Power BI Service.

Service principal is an authentication method that can be used to let an Azure AD application access Power BI service content and APIs.

 

For more information, you can refer to this :

Embed Power BI content in an embedded analytics application with service principal and an application secret - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI! 

 

Best Regards,

Thank you. Maybe my descriptiuon is not unclear enough, I mean the credential connect to the database. Now, I need to login in to use my own account and password, so the powerBi can get my credential and then the powerBI can read data from database.
