What is Power Embedded
O Power Embedded is a web portal in the SaaS (Software as a Service) format that uses a capacity license from Fabric or Power BI Embedded to access the official Power BI APIs and display the reports published on app.powerbi.com in this portal, 100% customized with your company's visual identity.
Access to the reports is done via API through capacity licensing. A user who only views the reports will not need to access app.powerbi.com, and they will not require a Power BI Pro license or even a Power BI account, as they can access Power Embedded using their corporate email or even personal emails (Gmail,
Power Embedded uses capacity-based licensing rather than per-user licensing. This means your company won't need dozens or hundreds of Power BI Pro licenses, just for users who need to publish reports or access app.powerbi.com for gateway configuration, data updates, etc. As a result, **Power Embedded can reduce the cost of implementing and maintaining Power BI by up to 90%.
In addition to cost reduction, the Power Embedded solution offers
