SSO to Power BI Service with Two Snowflake Accounts
- 1 year ago
Hi ELIU,
Thank you for your question.
It is possible to connect a Power BI report to two different Snowflake accounts, each with its own URL. When the report is published to the Power BI Service, each Snowflake connection will be listed as a separate data source in your dataset settings.
If you are using Single Sign-On (SSO) with Azure Active Directory, each Snowflake URL needs to be configured individually. Power BI recognizes each account as a unique OAuth connection, so you will need to authenticate both separately. This can be managed in the dataset settings by selecting "OAuth2" and "Use my Azure AD credentials" for each data source.
Ensure that both Snowflake accounts are federated with Azure AD; otherwise, SSO will not function as intended.
All data sources must authenticate successfully for the dataset refresh to work. If either Snowflake connection is not set up correctly, the refresh will fail. It is recommended to manually refresh the dataset after configuring both sources to confirm proper setup.
A data gateway is only necessary if either Snowflake environment is not accessible via the public internet. If both accounts are cloud-hosted and directly reachable, a gateway is not required.
Thank you.
