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

- How to: Embed Power BI in Power Pages (covers Embedded, RLS, filters etc)

Hope that helps, let me know if it seems it's somethin that can work for your use case.
