How to Auto Login Power BI HTML Static Application

[abksharma]

How to Login automatically the PowerBI embedded using LDAP (active directory) credentials. Using Power BI JavaScript API. I am using below embed code. (Iframe embedding) I want to avoid Login button and popup. Please help.

url = "https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=GUID&autoAuth=true&ctid=GUID"

document.write(
    "<iframe class='hero' title='Power BI Dashboard' id='myiframe'  src='"+ url +"' frameborder='0' allowFullScreen='true'></iframe>"
  )
  

Thanks

Thanks for the reply from lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight:

Hi, @abksharma 

I share the same view as lbendlin and additionally recommend using a service principal for the Power BI embedded solution to “Embed for your customers”.

1.Here are the differences between “Embed for your customers” and “Embed for your organization”:

“Embed for your customers” perfectly avoids the need for Power BI account authentication, making it more suitable for your needs.

2.Below are the differences between service principal and master user authentication methods:

Therefore, we recommend using service principal authentication.

One More Question, Will RLS (row level security) work in this case or it will stop working?
Thanks in advance.

You would have to use the actual Embedded setup, not just the iframe.
