Users outside organization cannot access dashboard
Hi bkokster,
Tested it on my local environment with my colleagues.
If we create a content pack and publish to my colleagues. then they can get the dataset. To create a report based on this dataset, they need access permission to SSAS database.

If we use Analyze in Excel feature, and send ODC file to colleagues, they also need access permission to SSAS database.

So in your scenario, in order to share the datasets themselves with users outside your organisation, and allow them to create report base don the dataset, the uers need to have the access permission to SSAS database.
