Thanks Gabi,

 

Think through ADFS connection to On-Premises would be the choice since I try using VPN connect to mobile has restriction due to company policy.

 

But taking the ADFS approach means all user profile would be stored in on-premises AD instead rather than Azure AD ?

 

Besides it needs to to use Windows Server 2016 seem that 2012 R2 Server do not have this capability.

Any more information for ADFS setting and architectire to connect through Power BI mobile apps ?

 

Thanks !

    Windows Server 2016 is required for the Web Application Proxy (WAP) and Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) servers. And connecting SSRS via Power BI is just a On-Premise solution, we can't use Azure AD.
