I am trying to share a dashboard with an external user but no matter what email I use, I get a Failure Notice reading "Failed to grant access". I have "share to external users" enabled in the Admin Portal Tenant settings.
Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening and how to fix it? Thank you!
Hey @doddv ,
this document contains everything one has to know, to share content with external users: Distribute content to external guest users with Azure AD B2B - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
But you have to be aware that sharing content means these have to have a license (no matter if the user is internal or external).
There are just two ways of sharing content for free:
Hopefully, this helps to tackle your challenge.
Regards,
Tom
Hi @doddv ,
Are you the owner of the Dashboard/report? Do you have a license? Is this a national cloud, govermental cloud or other secure cloud? There are a number of limitations for sharing in addition to the permissions in the Admin Portal.

Yes - owner of the dashboard and report. Yes - I have a pro license. No cloud. Not a premium tenant. But, I have heard that you should be able to share with external users for free?
