Newbie, How to create a new instance

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

I am looking for a step by step guide to create a new instance and setup a unsecured instance to be used with PowerBI, by passing the Windows authentication.

The current version of Power BI does not allow for Windows authentication, but using a NavUser type only.

I have never used MS Dynamics before and do not have time to learn the ins and outs of the program.

Thanks,,

K

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../hh168936(v=nav.90).aspx check this for creating new instance in server instance setting you need to make sure you provide proper port No.  which are not used already and once created Enable OData Service for PowerBI.

    For PowerBI windows authentication you need to use Power BI Gateway, please check this
