[Power BI Embedded](https://www.avantit.pt/en/services/data-ai/) allows you to take data analysis directly to where users work: their applications and portals. ## What is Power BI Embedded? It is an Azure service that allows developers to embed Power BI reports, dashboards, and tiles into web applications, without end-users needing Power BI Pro or Premium licenses. ## Use Cases - Customer Portals: Share performance metrics or project status with external clients securely. - SaaS Applications: Offer analytics as a premium feature of your software product. - [SharePoint](https://www.avantit.pt/en/services/modern-work/) Intranets: Although SharePoint has native integration, Embedded offers full control over the experience and navigation. ## How It Works? Implementation involves three main components: - Azure AD App: For authentication (Service Principal). - Power BI Workspace: Where reports are published. - Power BI SDK: JavaScript libraries to control rendering and interaction (filters, navigation, events). ## Row-Level Security (RLS) One of the most powerful features is the ability to dynamically filter data based on the logged-in user in your application, ensuring that each person sees only the data they have access to, all managed through a single master report. #### Editorial Policy At Avantit, we value authenticity and human expertise.
