How long did embedding PowerBI take your organisation?

[Anonymous]

Hi,

This might not be the right place but I was hoping there would be some good examples of organisations that had embedded PowerBI. My organisation is looking into it and as part of this weighing up the self-developed over vendor driven developed. By that i mean working with a 3rd party to help us. I want to hear from organisations that have done this themselves, how long it took? Challenges etc? Resource you needed. 

Our model is basically:

Each customer would need their own PowerBI embedded application as hosted on their own Azure platform, in our SaaS

Connection to customer's data can only be via API not to SQL db

50-100 Customers would need this

Customers on both Azure and AWS 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous.

#1, For this requirement, you can use power bi embedded to your customers:

Embed Power BI report in a Power BI embedded analytics application for your customers - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

#2, You can use a web connector to design a report based on the rest API:

Solved: Pull data from a REST API Authentication - Microsoft Power BI Community

#3, You can create a workspace that hosts in premium capacity, then you can manage your customer contents to this workspace for embedded operations:

Power BI Premium FAQ - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

#4, I think you need to check the whitelist settings to add power bi service to allow lists if your customers are working on AWS.
