Update the SQL Azure connector to use Azure AD Auth. This will allow row level security in the database to be used with PowerBI.
It would be great to have PowerBI pass through user credentials to the database so that data can be kept secure.

RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Add me to the list of those disappointed that this is not in the December update. This is significantly impeding adoption of Power BI Desktop for a company I work with. I told them to expect it by the end of year, but now I have no idea as to what I should tell them.
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Please provide an update on this feature. Unfortunately, it didn't make the December 2017 release.
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
We need this desperately! #enterpriseBIsolution
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Apparently this hasn't made the December release either. So not CY17, is there a new estimate?
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Makes no sense that this isnt supported!! when will it be released?
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Any chance this will come with the December 2017 version of PowerBI Desktop?
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Also a +1. My whole team is building reports off a data source that uses Azure AD, so this is a must have.
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
This is must have !
Hope it will be released before Xmas as a present from Santa !
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Since this didn't make it into the Nov 2017 release, will it definitely make the Dec 2017 release?
RE: SQL Azure connector with Azure AD Auth
Since this didn't make the Nov 2017 release, will we definitely see in the Dec 2017 release?
