Hi mwadhwani 

Do you mean "Publish from Power BI Desktop to Service"?

If so, it only need a Power BI account.

It doesn't need "Multi-factor authentication".

 

When you publish to service, you could choose which workspace to publish.

But for some App workspace where you have only view permission, you don't have access to publish report to this workspace.

 

What "security" do you want to enhance?

You could describe a scenario so that i may be come up with some workaround.

 

Best Regards

Maggie

Thanks for the reply

As mentioned ,From publishing from desktop to web , only Power BI Account is needed .

 

We need more more level of Authorization .

 

Lets assume , i am publishing my report to web from desktop into some workspace , I would need 2 level of Authorization

 

First , Some other authorization (another level of security with username and password) before we connect to Power BI web.

 

Second, Power BI Account

 

"Some other authorization" might refer to some org level constraints before we hit the power BI web with Power BI Account
