OK, ran into an issue, will try to strip it down to essentials.
I have a company Azure account (I'll call it Account A). It has a Power BI Pro license (trial). In the Azure site, it uses MFA (company requirement)
I created a PBI report and pushed it up to the cloud/service site. Then I tried to use the app_owns_data with PBI Embedded (I have the application ID, workspace ID, and report ID). When I tried to use the app_owns_data project, I got error messages about MFA.
(Note, I've used PBI embedded in trial mode successfully before, with my personal PBI Pro account....but wasn't using MFA)
OK, to try to address that, we created a PBIService User in Azure, but without MFA. (We'll call this "Account B"). I went through the same process.....created a Pro Trial license, pushed up a report under Account B, then used the authentication for Account B with power BI embedded. That worked OK.
However, here's what I'd "Like" to do. I'd like to author content up to the cloud using Account A (my Azure account, which uses MFA). But when we use PBI embedded in a web page, we'd like to authenticate through Account B( our PBI service account, which does not use MFA). I actually tried that, and ran into all sort of authentication issues, issues with not consenting to the application ID, etc.
So, my question....can someone point to a demo, video, blog, etc. that basically covers the following:
- Create and author PBI content up to the cloud with one account.
- Use PBI embedded to access that content in a .NET web page, where the authentication is a different account. (And a related question.....does Account B also need to have a Power BI license, and does that need to be a PRO LIcense?)
Hope this makes sense. I can provide more details if needed.
Thanks,
Kevin
