    Regarding the error, I suggest you to activate the debugger because it seems a wrong record in that buffer table (where are stored the PowerBI report IDs).

    First question: with free license you see the report of that user (AAD login). With Pro you can share reports.

    Power Bi reports are created in PowerBI, not in NAV. Here you can assign permissions to view the report X to user A.  If so, your user A we'll see the report in NAV.

    How do you authorize users then to see a powerbi report that has been created within nav. How to send a screenshot ?

    Users we'll see reports that they're authorized to view. Regarding the errors, do you have a screenshot please? Maybe it can help.

    I have all that in the video running the question is one step further than that.   only the pro powerbi licence that can share reports so you need to have power bi pro in order to see a shared report in NAv as well? and secondly when all that is set , if you go to lets say sales order and on the right hand powerbi ..it gives the error i mentioned any ideas ?

    Users must have authorizations to access PowerBI reports. The integration works for free and paied PowerBI versions.
