Allow Azure Active Directory guest users to access Power BI Enabled for the entire organization

Allow Azure Active Directory guest users to access Power BI

 

Did this tenant setting come into admin portal enabled by default? I've checked my audit logs and I don't see any activity enabling this...

Need Help

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    We need a bit more information to help you out here.  Is this a Report Server?  Is this Premium alone?  Is this for one individual person's license?  Is this for an O365 tenant that does not have Premium or Server but has a number of users?

      hi collinq - this is a Power BI Tenant Setting

       

      Not a report server. Nor a setting specific to premium capacity.  It's the first option in Export and sharing settings.

        Ok Anonymous ,

         

        I think I understand now - that setting is DISabled by default.  That setting applies to users with UserType set to Guest in Azure AD.

    Interestingly enough, Microsoft was able to reproduce my issue. 

     

    Would any one here with the Power BI Administrator role confirm if they are reproduce? 

     

    Steps to reprodue:

    1. Enable 'Allow Azure Active Directory guest users to access Power BI'
    2. Check on  'Updated organization's Power BI Settings' Audit Logs
    3. Confirm if you are able to see the activity for the 'Allow Azure Active Directory guest users to access Power BI' you had just enabled.

    This setting has been turned on for our Tenant for years, but external users still receive an error when trying to access PBI reports in the tenant. External users had no issue accessing PBI reports shared with them as guest users for several years, but recently this changed and they are no longer able to access the workspace.
