    Hi,nickibrochner .I am glad to help you.
    According to your description, you want to set up SSO (single sign-on) in power BI Report Server
    Even though I don't have experience in trying this, I would like to offer you some help.
    Here are some of my suggestions.
    I found the case study article about configuring SSO in SSRS and I noticed that this article also uses the official case study link you provided.
    URL:

    SSRS Custom Security with Single Sign-on

     

    SSRS shares similarities with Power BI Report Server, in particular they both act as local report servers providing report management, scheduling and subscription functionality (with a different focus on report types, Power BI report server also supports pbix files)

    I also found other issue about report server setup SSO.

    For report servers, Microsoft recommends using custom security extensions.

    I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
    Best Regards,
    Carson Jian,
