    Hi agneum ,

    Solved: Auto Sign In to Embedded Link to Power BI Report - Microsoft Fabric Community

     

    Also, you may have seen this, but here are a few tips (from Embed a report in a secure portal or website - Power BI | Microsoft Learn)

    • The automatic authentication capabilities provided with the Embed option don't work with the Power BI JavaScript API. They are blocked in PBI embedded client SDK starting with the version 2.10.4. For the Power BI JavaScript API, use the user-owns-data embedding method.

    • The automatic authentication capabilities don't work when they're embedded in applications, including in mobile and desktop applications.

    • The authentication token lifetime is controlled based on your Microsoft Entra settings. When the authentication token expires, the user will need to sign in again to get an updated authentication token. The default lifetime is one hour, but it might be shorter or longer in your organization. You can't automatically refresh the token in this scenario.
