How to share a report using Secure Embed option (I frames) with External users outside my company?

Hi Community,

 

I have gone through some of the Videos shared by Patrick (Guys in a cube) and some of the articles as well on how to share a report using No-code or Low - code( secure Embed/ I frames ) before writing a question here . 

 

At least 35000 external users out side my organization wants to view a report and there are not in my Companies domain (example: xyz.com) . Is there a way to share a report with them in a secure way with out any issues of breaching of companies policies and keeping security guidelines in mind ? If a report can be shared, does the users need to have O365 license ?

 

Please assist me with the above questions .

 

Thanks,

G Venkatesh

  • Hi. Let me clarify two ways of embeding in secure way because you are confusing them.

    - Embed by secure ifram: This method will create a link to easy integrate with a web app. The method will require a Microsoft profesional account with Power Bi Pro licence in the same tenant.

    - Power Bi Embed Capacity: this method will need a payment for a capacity that allows deep coding to Power Bi Service components. This method will also let you own the security and login. That way you can distribute the web app across a lot of external people without pro licence.

     

    You might want to use the second one if you want to share with that many users. Otherwise it would be a lot more expensive to pay for externals pro users.

     

    Hope this helps,
