Help with Having Multipe Accounts

[raharebecca]

Hello!

My company has our own server with our own set of Power BI reports and apps. However, we recently all got a second email that allows us to view reports from a different source outside of our company. Their reports are very important and maintained only by them. We cannot edit nor do we have any admin capabilities through the second email. 

Currently, to switch between the two, we need to sign out of one and log back in with the other email. Does anyone out there have this same problem? Are there any suggestions on how we can maybe integrate the two so that it's not such a process to flip back and forth?

Another issue is that depending on which account we last logged in with, sometimes the subscription email links will open the other Power BI account and not the one linked to the subscription email (which then leads to the logging out and logging back in process). Would love and appreciate any ideas. 

Thanks!!

hi  @raharebecca 

This happens to me all the time, for this case, I always open a new incognito window in the browser to get it, you could also try this way.

Hi @raharebecca ,

I'm not completely sure about this but I don't think clubbing/integrating emails are possible in Power BI since it will bypass the individual/unique sign-in ability.

To speed up your process, instead of signing-off from one account and then signing-in from another every time you require, you can open power bi services from 2 different incognito/private windows and sign-in with separate emails in both windows.

Make sure you open in 2 different incognito windows and not 2 different tabs of same incognito window.

If your query was for Power BI desktop, i don't think there is any work-around at present.

Give a thumbs up if this post helped you in any way and mark this post as solution if it solved your query !!!

Hi there

What if you had to speak to your network admin and see if they could create a trust between the 2 AD forests?
