Azure REST API connecting to Power BI - automate authentication

Hey,

 

I'm projecting a solution that will pull data from Azure Rest Api (like resource health, app insights).

Dashboard would be published to PowerBI Service and supposed to be accessible by people across our organization.

 

The point is, that we don't want to grant them access to subscriptions and resources in Azure. With their organizational account they should be able to see all the data up there.

 

Can someone explain me what is needed to be done here? I can understand that we need to set up some kind of Active Directory authorization or other.

 

Is this solution possible or we need to add users/group to subscription for them to have access to the pulled data.

 

Looking forward answers.

Rafal

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You may add the specific users to security group in O365 Admin Center, then assign the security group access permission to the specific workspace.
