Embedded Power BI Report Causing "Authentication wasn’t successful" Error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 156

Hi All,

 

I have multiple paginated reports embedded on my model-driven app, I (the owner) can visualized these reports correctly from the app so I tried sharing them with a second account. This other account can visualize the reports directly from the Power BI portal but, when trying to visualize from the model-driven app the following message is displayed "Authentication wasn’t successful. You need to sign in to your Power BI account to view or edit Power BI tiles."

 

I tried clearing the cache and doing a hard refresh, also logging off and on to the application but nothing is working.

 

Any ideas what may be causing this issue?

 

Thank you,

 

Erick

    Stevie - Are you using the xmr toolbox plug in too? I contacted the maker of the plugin and he said it was something in the recent update that broke the connection. He kindly got in touch with MS and they fixed the issue so it fixed it for me.

    Hi All - I have just started receiving this error - the embedded (in a Dynamics 365 form) PBI report was working fine up to today. I a have PBI Premium per user, O365 and Dynamics 365 licences. Any ideas why this has suddenly started happening?

    We are not in the GCC.

    Microsoft helped me figure out the problem, it may not be the same reason that everyone else is experiencing but, in my case, I had this user that was created exclusively for testing the different security roles in my app. I had some app passes assigned to my environment and I shared the app with this user. The user was able to access the app and data with no issues; however, what I didn’t know is that the embedded reports don’t work unless you have an O365 E3 or E5 assigned. Once we assigned that license to the user, the embedded reports started showing up.

     

    For Power BI is not necessary the O365 license and that’s why this user was able to see the reports directly from Power BI.

    Hi everyone,

     

    I have a customer with similar issue and they are in the government community cloud (GCC).  Is this the same for all here?  I am wondering if issue in GCC specifically.

     

    Thanks,

    Did any of you find a solution? I am having the same problem. 

     

    I am the owner of the report but I get the same error as you when I try to open the dashboard in the model-driven app.

    I'm just bumping this to the top since I'm still having issues and hoping someone can help.

    In case it helps to determine the problem, the user failing to load the embedded reports is getting the following error on the developer console:

     

    miniruntime.html?powerBIUrl=https[...]&loginLabel=Sign in&componentId=928436&direction=ltr&env=gcc&loginText=Authentication wasn’t successful. You need to sign in to your Power BI account to view or edit Power BI tiles. &client=web&mode=report&cookieName=powerbi&altText=Power BI&forcemobile=false&powerbiJSEnabled=true&background=0&tenant=[...]&usePowerAppsAuthFlow=false:1 Refused to display 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/' in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'deny'.

     

    Thank you,
