We (and many others) would like to be able to have a public URL for any dashboard that is created. This would enable us to share visualizations outside our organization, with partners, etc.

We will think about enabling this. Won't "embedding" in a public site via iframe be sufficient?

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

We are also using airtame and would like to have a public dashboard available to use it from there with no authentication, if possible restricted to specified IP's

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

I want to "publish" or share them via app.powerbi.com and not embedded in another website I have to maintain.

Iframes should not be used for security purposes...We are trying to move away from iframes.

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

Our use case would be to have our "call center metrics" or "Sales dashboard" being displayed on your screens. The software on these screens (www.airtame.com) only accepts an URL. No login, no iframe - just a URL and then is should update automatic like the live dashboards

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

I could certainly make use of this. I am currently looking at many other dashboard solutions to display office metrics on various screens that we have. PowerBI does everything I need except the ability to have a public URL to display on an AirTame device or similar. Even better would be the ability to lock down the public URL to specific IP addresses.

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

embedding via iFrame would work if the viewing user was not required to have or log into a BI account, and the content was clear of any BI wrappers. The key is real-time refresh (sub-minute) and no login.

RE: Public URL for Dashboards

Embedding isn't as easy and accessible as simply supplying a public facing link to the dashboard.
