Remove Authentication Code

[Rahp]

I have generated link as Webiste or Portal option , but it asks for login for once and authentication code also. Need to remove that authentication code requirement.

Hi @Rahp ,

So the authentication code step is actually a standard security feature and it’s not possible to fully remove it for published links in Power BI (or similar platforms). This extra prompt is there to protect data, especially if you’re sharing dashboards or reports that aren’t set to public access. If the link is generated for a Website or Portal, users will usually have to sign in at least once and use the code, just to confirm identity.

If you want to make the access fully open (so that users don’t get any login or code prompt), you’d need to publish your report to the web, but be careful — this makes your report public, so anyone with the link could see the data. If that’s fine for your scenario, you can try “Publish to Web” (if it’s enabled for your tenant). Otherwise, authentication is required by design and there’s no supported way to bypass it for private/secure links.

Hope that clears things up!
