Hi all,
Pardon my newbie question.
Given a scenario, where I plan to display my dashboard created from PBI desktop to multiple customers (external organisation) who don't have Power BI pro/premium etc (not planning to get either).
May I ask how and what is the most cost effective process to going about it and which license do I need to get started?
Not sure if this is useful: I am currently using Azure Cosmos DB to DirectQuery data into the dashboard and plan on displaying this dashboard on each customer's monitor.
Thank you in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.
If you are embedding for large group of audience who does not have a pro license then best approach is to host your content in premium/embed capacity.
Here are the instructions that you can follow to embed your reports https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/embed-sample-for-customers?tabs=net-co...

HI @tharunkumarRTK ,
Thank you for your help!
May I check if it is absolutely necessary to get Microsoft Entra for "Embed Power BI content using a sample embed for your customers' application"?
Thank you once again!
