Power BI Configuration
Mosaic must be authorised on your Power BI tenant to embed reports and execute DAX queries on behalf of your users.
There are three steps, in order:
Azure App Registration — created automatically when you activate Mosaic; this page covers what was registered and how to verify
Power BI Admin Portal Configurations — enable the necessary tenant-level switches in the Power BI Admin Portal
Mosaic App Configurations — point Mosaic at your Power BI workspaces and curate the resource catalog
Who runs these steps
You'll need:
A user with the Power BI Administrator role (to change tenant settings)
A user with Microsoft Entra Application Administrator rights (to verify the Mosaic enterprise application registration)
A user with Mosaic Tenant Admin access (to curate the catalog inside Mosaic)
These are often three different people. Coordinate before you start.
How long it takes
Plan to spend ~30 minutes the first time. Most of it is one-time setup that doesn't need to be repeated unless your Power BI capacity, tenant settings, or workspaces materially change.
