Assigning a Power BI Pro License to Embedded Service User

Hi,

 

Following the best practise / examples for a Power BI embedded solution where we own the data we picked up that a separate active directory from our main corporate one for embedding is considered the best approach

 

So, we did the following

 - setup a sub-active directory within our azure subscription

 - created a proxy / service account to use for embedding

 

I am now struggling to assign a license to the proxy / service user

 

How do I go about this?

 

Thanks!

Thanks for the message,

we have tried this, the user appears as an external user because of the different Active Directory domain:

This does not seem to make any difference, leaving the user as a Pro Trial User still.

What could we have missed?
