    Sure,

    a non developer good realistic approach that I suggest is:

    Power Pages (Microsoft native, for external customers)

    Power Pages lets you build an external portal with login and then add a Power BI component to a page. You can use the “Embed for your customers” / Power BI Embedded path so that:

    - External customers log in to your portal
    - RLS is applied from your dataset
    - They do not need individual Power BI licenses, as long as the workspace is on Premium or Fabric capacity

    Good starting points from Microsoft:

    - Add a Power BI component to a Power Pages site
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/getting-started/add-power-bi

    - How to: Embed Power BI in Power Pages (covers Embedded, RLS, filters etc)
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/guidance/how-to-power-bi-embedded
    Hope that helps, let me know if it seems it's somethin that can work for your use case.
