Solved: Add logout to iFrame of Power BI Service

AlexGurovich · ‎08-19-2021

Hi:

I am exposing a report of my Power BI Service, in an iframe within a website ( for which the user needs to log in ). How can I add a "log out" button somewhere inside the iframe???? (or even outside the iframe, as long as it is visible to the user)

Regards,

Alex Gurovich

Hi, @AlexGurovich

I found some useful information in some threads.

if visit "https://app.powerbi.com/Signout" , it will sign out the user of power bi, how about make a button which have hyperlink to the https://app.powerbi.com/Signout. When click the button, it will open a new tab and the current power bi page will signout in few seconds. it can be achieved better by using js script to call a background http request to sign out.

<!doctype html>

<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>Sign Out Power BI</title>
</head>

<body>
<script src="js/scripts.js"></script> 
<H1> Signout Test</H1>

<a href="https://app.powerbi.com/Signout" target='_blank'>
 <button type="button"> Signout Current User </button>
</a>
<br />

<iframe width="1140" height="541.25" src="https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=XXX&autoAuth=true&ctid=XXX&config=XXX" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>

</body>

@v-angzheng-msft Thanks. I believe what you propose is the best thing that can be done without having to pay for the "Power BI Embedded" licence...

Hi @AlexGurovich

As far as I know this is not currently possible if you are using the Secure Embed option. If you are using Power BI Embedded you are then controlling the logging in and could have a button to log out of your application.
