Power BI Desktop Error for Internet Facing Users
All of users that want connect to Power BI WEB Portal authenticate with AD account , ok ? so all of our users using AD account , there is no problem untile this stage . The problem accour when Internet facing user who working with their own laptop and want publish a report to Power BI server that created with Power BI Desktop , this users encountered error that I attached !
I was checked Windows Server event log and I realized , when this users tried publish a report , Power BI dekstop tries publsih report with local user ! this is problem !
About your question :
Currently, Power BI report server is on-premises, available for internal users. Or you may need to configure Web Application Proxy to expose it to the internet
This service will working for Internet users .
Saeidadz,
Did you happen to find a solution to this? this is the same issue I am having. PowerBI webportal is available via browser (IE, Chrome), user's can login and see the reports, but can't connect via PowerBI desktop. I'm assuming you're trying to go to file->open-> power bi server?
