Dears,

I have installed the Power BI Server V2.47.4766.1221 64-bit (June 2017) under Windows Server 2012 R2 and tested under intranet works perfect.

However, May I know the steps what & how to configure so Power BI Mobile could connect to the Power BI Server ?

Remarks :

1. Have moved the Power BI Server under DMZ network with public IP

2. Noticed configure WAP and ADFS could achive this objective but do follow below sequences is correct or please comment any further advise.

Hi Yuliana,

Since my company do not register or use any Azure Active Directory but only AD within network domain.

Does the set up of Power BI Server could be connected through power BI Mobile Apps through only ADFS and WAP under Windows Server 2012 R2 ?

Thanks !
