embed a power bi report in a web portal without logging in

Good afternoon
Dear, I want to embed a power bi report in a web portal without logging in, the web portal is built in .net, where users enter with their credentials and in that web portal it is required to embed power BI reports (it has a Power BI license Pro), but users to view their Power BI reports do not want to be asked to authenticate (I do not want the login window to pop out), is this possible? Do I need an additional license? How could I do it?

 

thank you very much

Hi@Anonymous ,

 

A Power BI report cannot be embedded in a web portal without logging in for now.
Whether a user opens a report URL directly, or one embedded in a web portal, report access requires authentication. A log in screen appears if a user has not signed-in to Power BI in their browser session.
After the user has signed in, the report opens, showing the data and allowing page navigation and filter setting. Only users who have view permission can see the report in Power BI.
Lastly, the user needs to be correctly licensed – either they need a Power BI Pro license, or the report must be in a workspace that is in a Power BI Premium capacity.
The user needs to sign in each time they open a new browser window.
For more information, you can refer to this : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-embed-secure 

Or you can submit the requirement to ideas and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner: https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/ 

 

Hope it helps.
