Power BI configuration - sending Internal IP Address to client browser

Good afternoon. We are trying to secure our implementation of Power BI server. 

 

When a client requests the server, in some of the responses, the internal ip address is shown, for example: 

{"@odata.context":"https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Reports/api/v2.0/$metadata#Me","Id":"yyyyyy-zzzz-xxxx-eeee-kkkkkkkkkkkk","Username":"user_name","DisplayName":"user_name","HasFavoriteItems":false,"MyReportsPath":null}

 

Does anyone know how to get this to stop sending the IP address and send a name instead?

 

Thanks,

Gene

I think you can configure this by setting the UrlRoot in the rsreportserver.config file

see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-server/rsreportserver-config-configur... 

 

I have this set in our environments and I see the server name not the IP in the api calls from the portal

Thanks for the response. I was able to make that change.

 

This did not help the situation. I am still seeing the IP Address for the oData.context in the response data. Do your URL reservations use the name or the IP address?

We use the name in our URL reservations
