Using a Guest Account in Report Builder

I was added to a tenant as a guest using my corporate e-mail.  

 

When creating a report using Power BI Report Builder, when I select my login, it takes me to my tenant. 

 

Is there a way to connect to a specific tenant URL?

Hi @callenbkd ,

 

Instead of using the default login (https://app.powerbi.com),

navigate directly to the specific tenant URL provided by the organization that invited you. This URL typically looks like:

Thank you for the answer. To access the Power BI app I get that but, using Report Builder on my desktop, how would I access the tenant? 

Hi @callenbkd ,

 

Unfortunately, guest users should not be able to log in to invite tenants in PowerBI Report Builder at this time. 

For now the guest users are more restricted.

Greetings. Thank you for your response. To clarify what you're saying, you're saying that guest users cannot connect to the tenant for which you are a guest? 

 

Thank you

Hi @callenbkd ,

 

I would like to correct my last reply. 😥


I found a blog:

Connect to Power BI as a Guest User in another Tenant | Under the kover of business intelligence

By testing the steps above, User A from Tenant A can connect to Tenant B on Power BI Report Builder at this point.
