Hi @_woscie ,

Follow this steps:

1. URL Rewrite (IIS):

   • You can achieve this using URL rewriting rules in IIS (Internet Information Services). These rules will redirect requests from the root URL to the specific reports page.
   • Set up a rule that redirects https://reports.domain.com/ to https://reports.domain.com/reports.
   • Ensure that the rule is configured to handle both HTTP and HTTPS requests.

2. Power BI Report Server Configuration:

   • Open the Power BI Report Server Configuration Manager.
   • Navigate to the Web Portal URL section.
   • Set the Web Portal URL to https://reports.domain.com/reports.
   • Save the changes.

3. Permissions and Authentication:

   • Make sure the necessary permissions are set for users accessing the reports.
   • Assign the appropriate roles (such as Site Administrator) to domain user accounts.
   • Ensure that folder permissions are correctly configured for your domain accounts.

thanks Xianda Tang,

currently IIS not installed on our server. should I install IIS ? do IIS consistent with PBI?

Hi @_woscie ,

Yes, you need to install IIS and they can coexist quite happily. You just need to make sure they are not using the same port number. If you set up the report server first, it will probably use port 80 by default.IIS will perform the same operation, so you will need to specify a different port for one or the other.
