Issues with dashboarding sharing

Hello to everyone,

 

I would need some help, because we are having problems sahring our dashboards with internal and external colleagues.

 

Only if I share my dashboard with an administrator of the dashboard itself it is possible to see it properly.

 

If I shared my dashboards with other colleagues, they received the link properly but then they only see boxes with crosses inside them.

 

Have this issue happened to anyone else ? 

 

Thank you very much

    franciscomateo,

    When you configure RLS in the dataset, you would need add the users to the role member in Power BI Service, otherwise the users you shared dashboard to will get the error message.

    franciscomateo,

    You can use one of the following options to work around this issue.

    1. Get Power BI RLS to work with external users by using map user name feature. There is a blog for your reference.
    2. Create separate report with the external users data already filtered out, then share the separate dashboard to external users.

    Regards,

    Do your colleagues can view contents of the shared dashboard in web browser after clicking the link? If so, there is no issues with Power BI. Please note that when you share dashboard to colleagues, both you and the colleagues should have pro license.

    The boxes and crosses you describe are related to settings of your email client(e.g.outlook). You can review the following example, right click the notification in the first screenshot and choose "Download pictures", you will be able to view images as shown in the second screenshot.

      Look I attached a screenshot with how a colleague can see my panel.

        franciscomateo,

        Could you please translate the above error message in English? In addition, what is  the data source of your report? Would you mind sharing me the PBIX file so that I can test?
