I'm developing a web app that will render embedded reports

* ASP.NET MVC5 web application
* using powerbi javascript api
* intranet application using on-premise Integrated Windows Authentication
* Must support SSO
* all users will be Pro users
Trying to follow this ASP.NET sample (authenticate a web app) and translate to MVC5 however I can't get things to work.
* When user logs into my app (IWA)
* Get Authorization Code from AAD - this returns an HTML login page markup. Can't I use something in Microsoft.IdentityModel.Clients.ActiveDirectory for this?
* Get AAD AccessToken using code returned from above step to call AuthenticationContext.AcquireTokenByAuthorizationCode
* pass access token to view
* view uses token to initialize report via powerbi javascript api following steps here for PowerBI.com
Any help or insights on this would be greatly appreciated.

The demo on github from your link actually uses the name space Microsoft.IdentityModel.Clients.ActiveDirectory. What is your concern on this?
I don't know about MVC5, however embeding a report from Power BI.com can be as easy as using a static HTML. You just need to get the access token from backend.
<html>
<script src="https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/node_modules/powerbi-client/dist/powerbi.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
var embedConfiguration = {
type: 'report',
accessToken: 'eyJ0eX....your token here',
embedUrl: 'https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=8067fc7f-06axxxxxxxxxxxxxx'
};
var $reportContainer = $('#reportContainer');
var report = powerbi.embedNew($reportContainer.get(0), embedConfiguration);
}
</script>
<div id="reportContainer" ></div>
</html>
