Using Two Domains Simultaneously (one for data connectivity and other for publishing dashboards)
parry2k TomMartens In my external data source (abc.com) i only have access to a dataset which i can access using the login id and password provided by abc. Now I want to access the abc.com dataset and create reports and dashboard and publish them in xyz.com domain. How can i have data connection all the time with abc.com and able to publish/update my xyz.com dashboard. Please help in how can i have connection to the dataset in abc.com and at the same time I am able to create my own reports. I do not want to logoff and login between abc.com and xyz.com.
negi007 connecting to a data source using a credentials is different than publishing to a domain.
Let's go step by step,
- connected to a data source using abc.com, and all good.
- on power bi desktop, on the top right corner, you log in with the domain in which you want to publish the report xyz.com
and now you publish the report....so what part is not working in this...You have to explain step by step, what you are doing, and what is not working? If you keep on repeating your question without telling if you are getting any error or something not working, it is very hard to figure out what is going on. I hope it helps.

As mentioned earlier I don't want to switch between two login IDs. I want to be able to connect to dataset in abc.com from xyz.com. is it possible? I should be connected to the latest dataset all the time. I hope it will be clear to you now what I am trying to achieve.
negi007 not sure what you are referring to switch ids, one id is to connect to a data source other is to publish, you are not switching, you are using different ids for a different purposes. If this is not what I understood than I'm not sure about your question and I hope someone else can help.
