Secure the master user credentials

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm using Power BI Embedded for my application and I wonder if there's a way to secure the master user pbiUsername and pbiPassword somewhere other than the Web.config. Or if it must be stored in that file, is it possible to use an encrypted key or something ?

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can store the user credentials as secrets in the azurekeyvault, which is the recommended best practice.
