, you will need to create an Azure application to allow PowerBI Portal to access your Power BI reports (in the following example the application will be named 'PowerBI Portal App' – you may use any other name).
Open Azure Portal and go to your Active Directory
Click on 'App Registration'
Click on 'New registration' to create a new application
Please fill in the name of the new application and create the application.
Get tenant ID and application values
To get those values, use the following steps:
Select Azure Active Directory.
From App registrations in Azure AD, select your application.
Copy the Directory (tenant) ID and store it in your application code.
The directory (tenant) ID can also be found in the default directory overview page.
Copy the Application ID and store it in your application code.
Generate your application secret
You can create a new application secret, using the following steps:
Select Azure Active Directory.
From App registrations in Azure AD, select your application.
Select Certificates & secrets.
Select Client secrets -> New client secret.
Provide a description of the secret, and a duration. When done, select Add.
After saving the client secret, the value of the client secret is displayed. Copy this value because you won't be able to retrieve the key later. You will provide the key value with the application ID to sign in as the application. Store the key value where your application can retrieve it.
Following this, you must add at the PowerBI Portal’s Settings tab your app’s ClientID and ClientSecret. You also need to add your Azure AD Tenant domain name or Tenant Id in the “Tenant Authority” field.
