    Hey,

    just to be sure,

    I don't understand what you are going to share with your clients?

     

    If it's the pbix file that you created using Power BI Desktop, please be aware that you can't secure the data.

    If you sent the PBIX to one of your clients, this client is able to see all the data that is contained in the pbix file.

     

    If you are going to share the report with your clients from within the Power BI service, then you have to consider some other aspects.

     

    But nevertheless, I would create a table user that contains two columns:

    • email
    • company

    create a relationship between the tables

    user (one side) -> company (many side) and

    company (one side) -> fact (many side)

     

    Create a role that filters the company by email.

     

    Hopefully this gets you started.

     

    Regards

    Tom
