Changing User Suffix

I have a scenario where we need to bulk change a number of UPN suffixes in O365, for users that have access to PowerBI reports and datasets.   Old UPN suffix @mydomain.nz New UPN suffix @mydomain....

    Hi GilbertQ 
    Would something need to change on-premises? 
    As the mapping on-premises appears to be to the SamAccountName (domain\user) which doesn't change at any point. 
    All we are changing is the UPN, and as far as I can see Analysis Services doesn't read from here.

     

    I have looked at the EffectiveName mapping, and I don't think this applies here.  As after the suffix change, both the account I login to PowerBi with and the on-premises UPN match.  So I'm not trying to change it's mapping.

     

    Before the change the sign in to PowerBI is @mydomain.nz and the UPN is also @mydomain.nz - this works 
    After the change the sign in to PowerBI is @mydomain.co.uk and the UPN is also @mydomain.co.uk - this doesn't

    Thanks

      Hi Anonymous 

       

      Did the internal domain also change?
