Powerbi embedded for customer

Dear experts,

 

I have an urgent matter regarding powerbi embedded. 

If I missed something let me know as this the first time to try it. 

 

Following is my customer requirement:

He has confidential stream data from field data collector. This data will be reported in a dashboard. 

He just want to see the data dashboard embedded in his company webpage internal webpage. 

He want a passwod protected link as their are many level of hierarchy in the company, so he want 

to expose only required data to each level. 

 

My approach is to purchase a pro license and purchase one ISV and use the API to collect the data from the 

collector result repository which is in a json format. 

 

As powerbi visuals are more suitable to his needs, i want to use powerbi. I will appreciate your help.

Hi @koffieli,

 

Nope, power bi embedded not support to add password.

 

For your scenario, I'd like to suggest you use power bi embedded with dynamic RLS based on username to achieve these requirement.

 

Power BI Embedded:

Official Documentation – Power BI Embedded

GitHub Sample Repo

 

Row level security:

RLS with UserName()

 

Notice: After you setting dynamic RLS based on username, if you not assign role to one user, even if he open the embed url, he alse can't view detail visual data.(it show visual data can't load)

Thank you very much. Does this mean that they need first to login in my app then I use the username to control activities in the access to the content?

HI @Anonymous,

 

Yes, if you use embed url to embed your contents, these users need to login in to power bi. then 'username' function will get sing-in user name.

 

BTW, RLS effect only works for read-permission users, it not works on dataset owner and edit-permission users.
