Hi all,
I'm pretty new to this world, so I have many questions. Usually I find a way by myself, but this time, I have no clues.
What I don't get is how "sign in" and "login" work with Power BI service, in details:
1) I had to use an office email to sign in, how does the system know that my email belongs to a work domain?
2) also, that same email address is within an Azure AD in the Azure portal. When I needed to change my password, I had to login within the Azure portal and change it from the profile there. Can you tell me how the 2 are related?
I guess Power BI user login is done through the Azure AD, but I don't get how that is possible.
Even just a link to docs would be highly appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
hi Richard!
thanks so much man! that link helped me to find this blog post: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/azure-active-directory-and-power-bi/ which actually solved all my doubts.
the key point is: when you sign up to any Microsoft Cloud Service, you get an AD
- Power BI is one of the services of Office 365 which belongs to Microsoft Cloud Service
- any service that is part of that tenant (O365) does make use of Azure AD [here is the relation between AAD and PBI]
hope it helps other people, it's not a Power BI "thing" though. It's indirectly on the AD side
@dtrovato, AD connect is a typical setup for some corporate environements. See details here; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/connect/active-directory-aadconnect
