Steps to Broadcast PowerBI Content

  1. Open your playlist and click Add content.

  3. Choose the authentication method:

    • User authentication: Display Power BI content using the connected user's permissions and access rights.

  4. Choose whether you want to display a Dashboard or a Report.

  5. Select the PowerBI document and the workspace it is stored in. If broadcasting a report, select the specific page to display.

  7. Click Save to complete the setup and start broadcasting.

Authentication methods

User authentication

Use User authentication to display Power BI content on behalf of the connected user.

Requirements:

  • The connected Power BI account must hold a Power BI Pro or Power BI Premium Per User (PPU) license.

  • Comeen can only access the workspaces, dashboards, and reports that the connected Power BI account has permission to access.

Premium Embed Capacity

Use Premium Embed Capacity if your Power BI workspace is backed by a Power BI Premium or Power BI Embedded capacity. Learn more about Power BI Premium in Microsoft's documentation.

This authentication method uses an embed token to display Power BI content.
