Is it possible to embed a PowerBi report into an external website for people without accounts

[khardie]

Hello,

I'm looking to embed a PowerBi report into a website where people without a login can view the visuals.

Is this possible and if so how?

Hi @khardie ,

According to your description, you might as well try the publish to web function.

When you use Publish to web, anyone on the Internet can view your published report or visual. Viewing requires no authentication. It includes viewing detail-level data that your reports aggregate. Before publishing a report, make sure it's okay for you to share the data and visualizations publicly.

For more details, you can read related document:

Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Hi @khardie 

Yes, any report you have published can be published to app.powerbi.com. From the Service view of the report go to "File", "Embed Report" and you'll see "Publish to Web - Public". This enables you to publish the report onto a publicly-facing website that anyone can see without a licence. On app.powerbi.com it will have a URL than can then be put in an iframe on another website, like this..

<iframe src="https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=eyJrIjoiYzkyZTdiYzYtMWFmMi00ZTZiLWE2YjQtYzIyZjBjMjYxNTRiIiwidCI6IjQyN..." width="933" height="700" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Or you can embedd a link like this... Strictly Come Dancing Report

BUT.

This feature is turned off by default, you will need to get your Admin to turn it on for you. See

How to Resolve Publish to Web Error Message: Contact Your Admin to Enable Embed Code Creation - RADA...

This is because Publish to Web stores the report on app.powerbi.com, which is searchable with Google and Bing, so anyone can search for and find your Report if they want. It should only be used if you are aware that the data is truly public.

Hope this helps

Thank you! I reached out to my Admin and we'll be having a meeting to discuss turning on this feature.
