    Hi emmanuelsaenzc,

     

    Current power bi has three license: free, pro and premium.
    For these license:
    1. All users can view the contents which premium user shared.
    2. Other users who has pro license can view the contents which pro/free user shared.

     

    >>So I still have my doubt, can anyone without a Microsoft account acces a dashboard? Pro license could be used in local mail domains?

    For your requirement, I think publish to web feature will suitable for your requirement, it not request the pro license or microsoft account to view the shared dashboard.

     

    BTW, below are limitations of publish to web feature.

    Limitations

    Publish to web is supported for the vast majority of data sources and reports in the Power BI service, however, the following are not currently supported or available with Publish to web:

    1. Reports using row level security.
    2. Reports using Analysis Services Tablular hosted on premises.
    3. Reports shared to you directly or through an organizational content pack.
    4. Reports in a group in which you are not an edit member.
    5. "R" Visuals are not currently supported in Publish to web reports.

    Publish to web from Power BI

Can I not create a Free license to view the dashboard? All I want is to share without having to pay a monthly fee for each person. There is really no need for user accounts if all you are doing is reading.
