Bamak By nature, you would have access to O365 admin with Power BI... but you may mean that it is owned by a different group. If you want to use security groups, those will need to be created by your IT admins most likely. Those who control your Azure AD environment. Typically an implementation of Power BI has a sync of on premises AD to Azure AD and the groups are created locally. Either way, this is something you don't ad-hoc build.

        Hi Angelina

         

        Secrurity groups (groups of PBI users  for an email adress(a tenant/ a omain) allow you to share dashborads & apps with multiple users in PBI

        They are managed with your security officier via your "on premise" AD Adinistration and replicated to Azure AD

        Or directly in Azure AD

         

        I'm agree with you , all is not very clear  between Office 365  , PBI Administration (premium) and Azure AD roles

         

        Our wish could be to managere groups for share (dashboards , app) on one unique  functional place (PBI portal ?)
        and to create them automatically from the workspaces (functional units)
         

        Regards
