Hi sally8953 ,

 

Embed for customers support two authentication methods: master user/ service principal. 

As far as I know, the workload that generating embed token should be online. And the embed token's default lifetime is assigned a random value ranging between 60-90 minutes (75 minutes on average).  So each time you want to see the embed report after life range, you need to get the new embed token.

For reference:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/embed-tokens?tabs=embed-for-customers

 

So I suggest that your working Environment should be online instead of offline.

 

Best Regards,
Rico Zhou

    Hello Anonymous,

     

    Thank you for your reply. 

     

    How about for both embed for customers and organization which uses an Azure AD Token? is that option possible to use offline?
