Map non AD users
Hi, In this link, Tech Tip Thursday: authentication with Analysis Services live connections : https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/tech-tip-thursday-user-principal-name-upn-mapping-in-power-...
Hi gheesalias,
Based on my research, the email address that we sign into Power BI with is passed into EffectiveUserName has to match a UPN property on a local Active Directory account. For this reason, the Analysis Services machine has to be joined to a domain. The domain of the email address has to match a UPN Suffix within local Active Directory.
In your scenario, if you mean non-AD users are email address sign in the Power BI Service. You can follow below links to use Map User Names feature:
