Anyone found a solution to this?
I mean I can explore an entire workspace in an external org using Azure B2B Guest accounts. I can even create a dataflow in the external org's workspace. But somehow it still seems impossible to connect to it using Power BI Desktop?
Also funny: I can create a dataflow in an external workspace, but even having the admin role in the workspace I can't manage the dataflow (settings, refresh etc.).

 

Any other consultants facing the same issues?

You can connect to external org dataflow from Power BI desktop. Below are the instructions

 

When you get the following screen, click on "Sign in options"

 

 

On the next screen, select "Sign in to an organisation"

 

 

Enter the domain of the organisation on the next screen i.e. "microsoft.com" or similar

 

Then select your account or enter your account details( i.e. the user name and password from your own tenant)

 

This should work
