Hi, @xuexi5241 ;

 the users need to a build permissions of the workspace or if the datasets are in separate workspaces then the users need to be also members of those 2 workspaces.

Now, External users to consume your report means 2 solutions, Either you give them or add them as guests to your workspace with at least a Pro license or the workspace itself needs to move from shared capacity to premium capacity.

Here is a link to Limitations
