RE: Azure Active Directory

We really need this ability in our BI reports. Using AAD to filter by store mangers, directors, etc. is a much coveted desire of our CFO. Please add this as soon as possible for a big win!Thanks!

RE: Azure Active Directory

bumping this idea. Integrating AAD into organizational reports can be very beneficial, especially when utilizing User Principal Names (UPN) into role level security. This needs to be an off-premise data source.

RE: Azure Active Directory

I'm looking for a way to give visibility to manager about which groups (both AD and AAD) their reporting employees are in. Seems like a connector to AAD would enable a such a list to be presented to the manager. I read that MFA authentication is an issue with the existing AAD Logs and Activities connector. Seems like a no-brainer that this would need to be fixed.

RE: Azure Active Directory

Shocking... so many sources and yet #1 for admins (users in O365) for showing off O365 capabilities...

RE: Azure Active Directory

It is a bit insane that you can connect to AD but not to AAD - this makes zero sense.

RE: Azure Active Directory

My org *needs* the Azure AD Activity Logs Content Pack to work with Power BI Pro GOV. I cannot believe it doesn't work.

RE: Azure Active Directory

This is expected here too, to consolidate AAD users with some external organization file.

RE: Azure Active Directory

We need Azure AD connector for Power BI badly.
Or at least Graph API connector.
Especially after Microsoft broke OData connector, and we can't use it to connect to Graph API anymore

RE: Azure Active Directory

Absolutely need this! Imagine creating only one security role in our models that is applied to all users in the organization. This one security role uses logic based on the AAD groups to filter the data correctly. This would basically give us seamless RLS by simply adding users to the appropriate AAD groups at setup.

RE: Azure Active Directory

I'd like to see it more tightly integrated. For example, Power BI could automatically recognize an email address or and SPN and offer relevant data for that user. Ideally this would include Office Graph data too.
