Handling authentication when embedding PowerBI Report Server reports

I am working with one of our C# developer who embeded our SSRS reports into our web Application to embed a report, hosted on a PowerBI Report Server, into  a webBrowser control. Its quite different from the process of embeding SSRS reports. Please , has anyone @here  encountered this , and any workaround that worked?

I use url of the following form:
Server path
serverpath/reportname?rs:embed=true

On the front page of my HTML i have some thing like this:
<a href="report_page.aspx?ReportType=reportsever/reportname?rs:embed=true" target="_blank">

This works, however prompts for Active Directory authentication,
to the Power BI Report server. We do not want users of these reports having authentication credentials to the poer bi report server. Is there like a workaround to bypass the authentication prompt on the browser using C#. Thanks in advance.

Hi @enjuh ,

If your web application is running by edge or chrome, you could refer this case to set: I want to load a Power BI Reporting Server Report ... - Microsoft Fabric Community.

I have provide detailed steps.

Thank you @Anonymous . All these configurations are already set up. The power bi reports are already integrated into the web Application, but each time you access any of these reports from the application, an authentication prompt pops up ,for a user to input credentials to the power BI report server. we do not want this, reason i am looking for a way to bypass this authentication , and open only the report to which the user wants to view.
