Sharing dashboards with external users
Power BI does not currently support sharing dashboards with external users. There is a "Publish to Web" feature for Reports that you can use, but I realize that is probably not exactly what you want.
Hi Greg_Deckler it does now

:smileywink:
BobF hotmail.com is blocked too
Not sure why domains would be blocked? recipients have to sign up for Powerbi account to view anyway so would have thought MS would welcome the likes of gmail
- Alas, my knowledge of the product is sooooo 2 days ago!! :)
Its both exicting and exhausting trying to keep up with all the features the Power BI team are releasing!
That said l remember moaning to the M/Soft staff at SQLBits last year about the lack of a road map for SSRS. They said just wait, they could not say anything at the time. Since then l feel like my mind has been blown on a weekly /.monthly basis :->
Thanks for the reply @itchyeyeballs.
OMG it works ! Oh this is so good :-D
Two lessons learned
- some domains will just not work :-( Ok that's a minor downside, which l can understand and accept. So cannot use @gmail.com, @hotmail.com, and some other domains. I'll hopefully get and email TO one of my customers tomorrow to test it with them. As this is the feature which l have been waiting for.
- Open the links in IE just to be safe. When testing the last step to log into PowerBi crashed when l used Chrome, worked when l used the URL with IE
Does it work for you guys?
