Security Role via SSO
Hi, Anonymous
To check if your Azure AD role has taken effect in Power BI, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the Power BI service and navigate to the workspace in question.
2. Click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select "Workspace settings" from the dropdown menu.
3. In the left-hand menu, select "Manage Access" to view the access settings for the workspace.
4. Here, you should see a list of all the users and groups that have been granted access to the workspace, along with their role. If your Azure AD role has taken effect, you should see your account listed here with the "Reporting Workspace - Contributor" role.

Hi, Anonymous
You can use Single Sign-On (SSO) to enable seamless connectivity between Power BI and Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). SSO allows users to access cloud data sources that rely on Azure AD-based authentication. When you configure Azure AD SSO on the on-premises data gateway for an applicable data source, queries run under the Azure AD identity of the user that interacts with the Power BI report.
To enable SSO, you can configure your gateway with the following SSO options: Active Directory (AD) SSO, which includes Kerberos constrained delegation, Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), and Azure AD SSO. You can also configure a tenant-level setting in the Power BI admin portal to allow only Power BI service admins to enable this feature for a tenant.

Hi v-zhangti ,
Thank you for your response.
Following up on my question, how can I check on the Power BI Workspace if these Azure Roles have taken effect?
For example, suppose there is a role called "Reporting Workspace - Contributor " in the Azure Active Directory and my account has been granted that role. My question is this: Is there a way on the Power BI workspace to see what Azure AD role have I been granted? I was only given workspace administration permission that is why I just want to confirm if I can validated anything with the current Power BI workspace role I was given.
Thank you
