    Hoping to bump this up. This is a huge hole in CRM and Power BI. I would love some insight into when this is coming.

     

    Also, if this is an issue you care about, can you add a couple votes to the pile? I am hoping that with enough visibility, this will encourage the dev team to share some details about when this is coming, and what we can expect.

    I also have to say, the current approach to sharing on the web, where no login is required, will not work at all of embedding in CRM. There needs to be a middle ground where I can get my reports and dashboards into CRM, but still require a level of authentication that ensures only the right people are seeing the reports. Since I believe Azure Active Directory is involved in both CRM Online and Power BI authentication, this should actually be the default state.

      Anonymous - Does the new "Publish to Web" feature help address this at all?

        Greg_Deckler - It does not. That publishes a public URL that you can access via the web without any authentication. However, that can't be embedded in a dashboard. And to be honest, even it it could, no one wants their CRM data published and open. 

         

        if you have a vote to share, please consider adding yours to the pile! This is really an important issue that will help drive Power BI adoption for existing CRM users.
