Power BI in digital signage
sieed We're running a POC at the moment and will start rollout soon, but we haven't had any logouts or crashes, and data is refreshed every time a report rotates in. We don't have to go back in and sign in - you set up an application registration via the Azure portal and it uses that. All reports in the 'My Workspace' section of the user you set it up with can be used in DisplayMonkey. We created a service account user in Power BI and use content packs to publish existing reports to that user's workspace. You could also just publish reports to that user directly.
For anyone new to this post, my company is currently in the final stages of adding support for PowerBI dashboards in our digital signage product.
We provide both the player hardware (pc with dimensions of approx 7.5cm x 7.5cm x 2.5cm) and a remote management interface + support etc. for a fixed monthly fee (from £30). Of course you can also then display other info on the screens as well (videos/images/messaging/yammer, etc.). If you're interested you get in touch via our website (pixelnebula.com).
