Enterprise Gateway - Active Directory Security Groups as Users

[pbiideas1]

In the gateway data source I am forced to add each user individually to allow them to create a report off that data source. Alternately I can create custom groups in o365. We have already established security groups on our system would it be possible for these groups to be used? This is an extra layer of security for hundreds of users that has already been solved through active directory synchronization with office 365. The use case is to add a security group or multiple group to be authorized to create reports off the data source. When we add or take out personnel from the security group it will propagate up to Power BI.

Security Groups are supported in the Gateway users list - Go to Manage Gateways- Select the Data Source you want those users to create a report off -> Click on Users -> you can add a security group there

Dimah, Is this functionality still turned on? I'm not seeing it allowing me to add Active Directory Security Groups. I see the secuirty groups in my Content Packs but not my Gateway. Please Advise

This is great, but what we really need is the ability to share a report/dashboard with an AD group. Few of us out here want to have to hand maintain Office 365 groups with large numbers of people in them, especially when our organizational AD admins and IdM systems already do that. We need to be able to share with those AD groups.

Dimah, please reopen this backlog item. The intellesense can see our AD groups, but when you select one, it says 'These email addresses are invalid or duplicate'

[fbcideas_migusr]

Same here! Please fix it.

As Dylan said, I get the 'These email addresses are invalid or duplicate' error when trying to reference an AD group. Please reopen this backlog item.

We're looking into this issue, there might have been a regression.

[fbcideas_migusr]

I need some additional information about this. Could you verify that the SG you're using is or isn't associated to an email address?

[PabloPalmeri1]

CAN we get an update on this ASAP?
