Hello

I think you are facing a misunderstanding of how it works.

External users ALLWAYS have to login to your company "home" service to work with your shared reports and datasets.

What is your home tennant URL?

  1. In the Power BI service, in the top menu, select help ( ? ) then About Power BI.
  2. Look for the value next to Tenant URL. This is the tenant URL you can share with your guest users.

So share your tennant URL and the external user will handle IT as the way they like, not your problem.
