Azure datawarehouse Service Principal and Power BI

Hi all, 

 

I have a doubt about Service Principal, Azure Datawarehouse and Power BI. 

I have created a Service Principal and I have some reports in Power BI that get data from Azure Datawarehouse. Now I want to use this Service Principal as "login" instead of using a personal acount (email + pwd). 

I have access with the Service Principal to the Azure Dw however how I indicate in Power BI that i want to login with this Service Principal? 

All help will be appreciate 🙂 

 

Andrea.

Hi ,

Current it's not possible to use spn for authenticating to data warehouse.

The only possible other way to connect warehouse is using sso
