There are three types of report imports:
Power BI Report: Import existing reports from Power BI.
Web Report: Import reports from online sources like Google Data Studio, OneDrive, Tableau, and Power BI Workspaces.
Power BI File: Publish PBIX files directly to Power BI without needing Power BI Desktop.
View all workspaces where Power Embedded has admin access.
Import reports individually or all at once.
In Power Embedded, you can embed web reports or documents stored in SharePoint, OneDrive, and other sources. For example, if you have a dashboard in Google Data Studio and need to view it here, simply insert the link, and it will be automatically recognized as an external report in the portal.
If embedding is restricted, use the "Open in a New Tab" option for seamless integration.
You can also publish Power BI reports that are locally on your computers to workspaces in the Power BI service, giving your users greater freedom and autonomy.
Learn more about this feature on the Publishing Reports to Power BI via Power Embedded page.
Power Embedded is a fully customizable white-label system. This is where you personalize the user experience with your company’s branding.

You can also customize the authentication methods supported by the platform and configure other login screen customizations.
If you block any authentication method, no user will be able to authenticate using that login method and it will not be shown on the login screen.
If this authentication method is enabled, it will be shown on the login screen, but you can block it at the user level so that that specific user cannot use this authentication method.
