How can I register the api of POWER BI in an Azure app?

I discovered that there are 2 accounts in my microsoft account, one is the existing one (that used to create the microsoft account), another one is registered for Power BI when I first used Power BI desktop. The problem is the existing one has all permission in Azure, but the power bi function can not be registered(cannot be found in API), the one for Power BI has no permission in Azure, but the Power BI service can be registered. These accounts is separated and I don't know how to use Power BI embedded in Azure. How can I do to register the power bi service in my app?

 

Sorry for my poor english.

Have you ever tried to register the APP at this site https://dev.powerbi.com/apps(login with the Power BI registered account) and configure all permission in Azure portal?  I think the Azure AD app has the free edition, based on my test I have no issue creating an Azure AD app with a free azure account.
