Form based authentication while connecting to SSRS

[Anonymous]

Hi,

While connecting PowerBI App to SSRS 2016 server, can I use form based authentication ?

It has been 4 years since the first report of this lack, but unfortunately I see that the functionality has not yet been implemented...

Hi,

Not sure what is form authentication.

When connecting to SSRS you can use basic or NTLM authentication

Hi,

Form based authentication is the custom authentication in SSRS.

Hi,

Form based authentication is not supported today in the mobile apps, but this is something we're considering to add later on.

Thanks,

I have implemented Forms Authentication in Power BI Reporting Service and now I need to implement SAML 2.0 based Single Sign On (SSO). Do Microsoft Power BI supports SSO with or without SAML ? If yes, can you tell me how can I do that? I binged on it but couldn't get any help.

Hey Sam,

are you refering to the mobile app or Power BI Service/Web?

thanks Maya

We really need this.  we added a custom auth provider to SSRS.  Shouldn't the mobile app support it?  I believe this is a gap making it impossible to use the mobile app unless you use standard authentication (AD).  Could you please resolve the issue.  Forms auth should work just like it does on the SSRS 2016 now.

thanks

Hi,

We have that on our backlog but this is not prioritized high at the moment, since we didn't get many customer requests for that.

Please open an idea for that, so we could see how much interest this requirement is getting in order to prioritize accordingly.

Thanks,

Gabi
