Hello All,
Need your suggestions.
I have gone though many links to share the dashboard to extenral user but I am really confused what to do? So thought to write here and get some clear suggestion or proper way to share to others.
Say, I have a PBI dashboard and I have 100 users outside to my organization to share this with. No user still have any pbi account. Could anyone explain starting from very first step how I could go for it?
When it comes with internal sharing within my organization I could do it but when things come for external, I am really confused. Do all 100 users need pro account? Or I can have a master account for external and that account holder will add all remaining user's access? What all further accesses I need to provide?
Somewhere I read about Office 365 and Azure accounts, how they work in my case?
Please anyone guide me since I really dont know anything about sharing to external.
Thanks in advance.

Hi @harshadsp,
Yes, you're right. Anyone can view your report. With sharing dashboard, whether you share content inside or outside your organization, you need a Power BI Pro license. Your recipients also need Power BI Pro licenses, or the content needs to be in a Premium capacity. So the users need have pro license or they are in a Premium capacity.

I would either use "Publish to Web" or watch this video:
Publish to Web is simply:
1. Publish report to Power BI Service from Desktop
2. Go into Power BI Service, find the report
3. Click File | Publish to Web to generate a link
4. Email link to interested persons
Thanks @Greg_Deckler
But I guess 'publish to web' will make data visible to anyone? Since the data is sensitive, I am thinking it would be risky. Appreciate your thougyhts in this. Please advise.
If this will not work then any other alternatives?
Thanks
