How to restrict anonymous user to view the Published report

Hi,

 

I have Published a Power report using Publish to Web. I have added the published report iframe in page and displyed. I have added this url in SharePoint page using content editor web part. This is fine if SharePoint logged user can see the report. 

 

Now my problem is this report is canbe accessed by other anonymous users if they know the published report url. I want to restrict anonymously users to access this report. How can I achieve this?

 

Thanks

When you use Publish to web, the report or visual you publish can be viewed by anyone on the Internet. There is no authentication used when viewing these reports. Only use Publish to web with reports and data that the anyone on the Internet (unauthenticated members of the public) should be able to see. This includes detail level data that is aggregated in your reports. Before publishing this report, ensure you have the right to share the data and visualizations publicly. Do not publish confidential or proprietary information. If in doubt, check your organization's policies before publishing.

@rocky09Thanks for the reply,

 

Can you sugget another way to achieve this? I want to Share my reports with different users. Created report in one Power BI account and want share with particular users. I checked the Power BI web part in SharePoint online. But I am getting this error "This content isn't available.".
