Multiple Login using same account - Power BI Service
- Anonymous9 years ago
Mathangi_S A couple things to mention here.
First, when you share a dashboard there is no limit to the number of people that can see it and interact with it. It's a one to many scenerio, you don't need them all to log in to the same place because they each have their own workspace, and the dashboard will show up for all of them.
Second, if you mean that you need multiple users to all have access to change the dashboard/reports and you want to use the same login instead of a Group Workspace I can only imagine you are trying to do this because you are trying to avoid the "Pro" license.
Third, I was able to connect to the same workspace from multiple machines with the same login, but I don't know how that scales.
Fourth, I wouldn't recommend this as every user would have access to fully control the environment and remove dashboards or alter any reports, etc.
I do wish there was a definitive “Yes” or “No” on this, as one of our accountants is trying to push for “location accounts” that multiple users can share.
I’m pretty sure that this goes against the Microsoft Power BI Service Agreement, but this guy is persistent, and persuasive to the C-Levels, so knowing definitively one way or the other, would be of great importance to me, and to the entire IT Department.
