Hi Amit,

 

Thanks for the reply, however for the dataset I need to recreate the visuals isn't it?.  I will explain my scenario here. For a group of people I would like to share a Power BI report that I did by myself. Whenever they receive my email notification, they have to enter their O365 credentials to view it (In the mobile application, it's one time). Therefore, is there anyway that we can bypass the credential entry and view the report directly.

 

Thanks & Regards.

Thanks & Regards,
