Sharing a report outside of my organization

[Anonymous]

Hi guys !

I have a question (idk if it's the right place to post ...) for the project i am working on.

Here is the situation :

1. My organization has a PowerBI Pro Account for the whole organization
2. I want to publish a report to nominative personne in my client organization
3. My client organization doesn't have a Pro license

So, I created my report on Desktop, published it on powerbi.com.

But when i want to share the report to one of my client, i have an error message saying :

"One or more email addresses are outside your organization: esante.si-samu.fr"

Is there a solution to bypass this and share my report successfully ?

Ty guys !

With Webdashboard you can easily share your Power BI reports and dashboards, with an intern and external users. All you need is an e-mail address. You can try Webdashboard for 30 days and if you need any help, they will quickly react. It's available at the Microsoft App Source and for more information, you can visit the website: www.webdashboard.com

hi, @Anonymous 

For normal, if you want to share a private report to others, you and others both need the Pro license.
If you have purchased Premium and add your content to Premium, then when you share the content, the receiver could be free users.

Another way, you could publish report to web, then anyone could access it.

But When you use Publish to web, the report or visual you publish can be viewed by anyone on the Internet. There is no authentication used when viewing these reports. Only use Publish to web with reports and data that the anyone on the Internet (unauthenticated members of the public) should be able to see. This includes detail level data that is aggregated in your reports. Before publishing this report, ensure you have the right to share the data and visualizations publicly. Do not publish confidential or proprietary information. If in doubt, check your organization's policies before publishing.

Hi,

My organization has a PowerBI Pro Account for the whole organization

Everyone in your organization has a pro lisens, or does your organization have a premium license?

I want to publish a report to nominative personne in my client organization

If you get an error when trying to share to external user, most likely you Power BI admin has turned off the ability to share with external users. Do you get a warning or do you get an error? If you get an error, you will have to ask your Admin to turn it back on. If you only get a warning, you should be able to share it.

My client organization doesn't have a Pro license

If your client does not have a Pro license, your organization will either need to have Premium license or provide your client with a Pro licence from your organization. This can be achived by adding the client as a guest user in Azure Active Directory B2B, and then assigning a Pro license.
