Allow Embedding of Power BI Report Server Reports for Extranet Apps. Because of our clients needs data cannot leave our servers and be put on the cloud. Our existing SSRS reports are displayed using a report viewer object, however this will not work for PBIX. We need to ability to embed PBIX and display it externally. Is this going to be possible with Power BI report Server?

Wanted to post an update to one of the pieces called out for this item - In a future update for the product, we're planning to do work to introduce support for ADFS/AAD in Power BI Report Server, and at the same time do work to enable your app to override user authentication in a secure way.

The other challenge is there is only SSAS live connection which works with PBI RS

Hi, any news on this? It is totally blocking our pbi server adoption and thinking looking other tech

RE: Embed Power BI Report Server reports into extranet apps

Your parenthetical kills us. We do not want to expose our report server to the client browser. Surely there is a better way?

I'd also be interested to hear more about when this might be released. Also, when the next release of Report Server will be out. I thought I saw a road map that said it would be updated 4 times a year, so I'm thinking it should be soon since we are already close to end of Q1

RE: Embed Power BI Report Server reports into extranet apps

Development team is looking at alternative solutions to Power BI because this feature does not exist yet...

Hope it arrives before they go too far down the other path.

RE: Embed Power BI Report Server reports into extranet apps

Hi @Riccardo Muti,
We are implementing this now so would be very interested in the user authentication piece that you mention.

In the meantime as a workaround, we are thinking to install Report Server on our database server for our internet site (already in the DMZ). Then use iframe in sharepoint to make the report accessible

Does that sound feasible?

RE: Embed Power BI Report Server reports into extranet apps

Dear @Riccardo Muti,
Any update on custom Authentication for embedding dashboard to custom application from on-premises PBIRS?
If this feature is still late then can we automate Integrated Windows Authentication i.e. don't show login dialog to user when display report in my custom application but automate logic through code?
