Power BI B2B Sharing Inconsistencies

I am sharing content in a workspace to Azure B2B guest users that I invite.  Once I create the guest user using their email (also on a Microsoft 365 tenant), they accept the invite and by clicking the 'Accept the Invite' button in the email it takes them to the 'My Apps' page of our tenant.  However, there are no apps listed for this guest user.  I use the https://app.powerbi.com/groups/{workspaceID}/reports/{reportID}/ link typically to give users the location of the report, but with external users it appears to bring them to their own PBI tenant and a dialog box pops up saying 'Sorry, we couldn't find that report'.  I would expect that the URL should work and the authentication would direct the user to the correct tenant.  

 

Is there something I am doing wrong with setting up the Entra ID guest user to allow them to see Power BI as an App?  We have already assigned a Pro License to the user.

 

I sent them a new link 'https://app.powerbi.com/home?ctid={TenantID} and guided them on how to get to the report . . . which worked.  I would like to have a way that I can send them directly to the report.  Is their a URL construct that includes the tenant ID?  Or is the application not working as expected?

 

The users also don't see any 'From External Orgs' option on the home page of their own tenant either.  So I see this as a poor user experience if they are directed to the wrong tenant.

Hi @AltaMagic ,

 

When sharing links with guest users, include the tenant ID in the URL to ensure they are directed to the correct tenant. The format should be:

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/{workspaceID}/reports/{reportID}?ctid={TenantID}
