    Hi, Anonymous 

     

    The #EXT# tag is only meant for external users, not the reason for the error. If external users have permissions to the source data, they can generally access the reports to which permissions are granted. You can confirm this first.

    Secondly, external users can only open the report through the link in the invited email, or save the link, and they can't open the report directly by clicking on it.

     

    You can also check this document to learn all about it:

    Distribute Power BI content to external guest users using Azure Active Directory B2B - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

    Did I answer your question? Please mark my reply as solution. Thank you very much.
    If not, please feel free to ask me.

Hi, Yuka, 

We made a solutions for this, merely for our own use. But more and more of our customers wanted to use this. In 2020 we published our solutions as www.webdashboard.com This is a portal to share your PowerBi Reports internally and externally. I think our USP is sharing, but we added a lot of functionality to it in de meanwhile (because our customers ask for it). Just have a look. We are always glad to help.
