Is it possible to incorporate Copilot functionality into Power BI Embedded?
Hi pablo_schor
Sorry for the confusion but after reinvestigating founnd the limitations as below.
Currently, integrating Copilot functionality into Power BI Embedded using the "App Owns Data" model is not supported. This limitation arises because Copilot features, including the narrative visual and AI-driven interactions, require user-level authentication, which is inherent to the "User Owns Data" model.
In the "App Owns Data" scenario, reports are embedded into external applications for unauthenticated users, and authentication is managed centrally through a service principal. As a result, Copilot features are unavailable in this embedding model.
If incorporating Copilot is essential for your application, you might consider transitioning to the "User Owns Data" embedding model. This approach requires users to sign in with their Power BI accounts, enabling access to Copilot functionalities. However, this change involves significant architectural adjustments and may not align with all application requirements.
As of now, there is no official roadmap indicating when or if Copilot support will be extended to the "App Owns Data" embedding model. For the most current information, it's advisable to monitor Microsoft's official documentation and community announcements.
