Posted on by srbh24

I have created a website using power pages where there is a login page. Such that when the users enters the email and password gets access to the power bi dashboard. But I want to get the email id the user enters into the form and send it as a parameter to the Power BI. Is that possible?
Can you also suggest how to do this step-by-step ?

As another alternative approach you can use user principal name in power BI side and that way would be able to get current user's email/contactid

You can access the logged in contacts details using the user property. For example, if you are using an iframe to embed the power bi report, you could use {{user.emailaddress1}} and pass that in as a query string?

<iframe width="500" height="500" src="https;//app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=xxx&autoAuth=true&email={{user.emailaddress1}}" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>
