Embedding Power BI into our application so my customers can see their data

[nhol]

Hi,

Does embedding a Power BI dashboards/reports in my application requires (MUST NEED) a Power BI premium license?

The application that my company is selling to our customers, is a financial application providing mid-size companys the ability to manage their orders, vendors, purchases, customers billing etc.

The next phase we are approaching is to embed Power BI dashboards and reports we already designed into our application and let our customers login to our app and have the ability to see each one its own data and reports instead of using a pre-designed and very limited reports the software is currently providing.

So in that case, does Power BI premium which is a great investment for our company is our only option?

From what I’ve seen on Microsoft website it starts from $4,995 a month!!! Could be?

Thanks!

NH

Hi @nhol,

That all depends on your scenario. Please refer to the documentation here. If you have a large number of users, I'm afraid the capacity is needed. Please refer to embed-sample-for-customers#create-the-embed-token.

That's the thing that I don't have a large number of users at all. I have only 20-30 customers top, who need to have access to the dashboard. However, I really don't want them to do they day-today work in the application and then sign out and sign in to PowerBI.com to see their reports. It's a hustle!!! I want a one stop shop in the application.

Does that still require Premium licensing and do I have to pay $5,005 for that (including i Power BI Pro license).

Thanks,
