yahoo blocked?

Yahoo.com is blocked as a potential recipient. We need to open that up, so that we can share data with users external to microsoft.

    Hi dedmondson,

     

    Sharing dashboard in Power BI inside and outside your organization both have the same licensing requirements.

    So if you are sharing Power BI pro(or free) licensed dashboard with external users, it would require the user also have a Power BI pro (or free) license to open the dashboard.

    And because Power BI does not support email addresses provided by consumer email services or telecommunications providers, so some type of email address would be blocked. This includes outlook.com, hotmail.com, gmail.com and others.

    Check this part: Self-service sign up for Power BI.

    As suggested by ankitpatira, we could vote for the ideas if we would like Power BI to have those email address available.

     

    Regards

further, hotmail appears to be blocked. That's insane.
