The Power BI connector reads your published reports and datasets across every workspace, so Rivvi can cite live figures and compare them against your outreach outcomes.
Power BI is the Microsoft 365 connection scoped to Power BI only — the same Azure AD app, without granting SharePoint, OneDrive, or Teams access. Most organizations should connect Microsoft 365, which covers Power BI and the rest of the suite. Choose this if you want to grant Power BI on its own.

​
What you’ll need

From an Azure AD app registration with Power BI access:
  • Tenant ID — Azure app registration → Overview → Directory (tenant) ID
  • Client ID — Azure app registration → Overview → Application (client) ID
  • Client secret — Certificates & secrets → the secret Value (shown once at creation)

Power BI: Register an app

Default workspace ID(Optional) Leave blank to use all workspaces, or set one to pin a default
Your Azure app must be a member of each Power BI workspace it should read, and your tenant’s “Allow service principals to use Power BI APIs” admin setting must be enabled. The Microsoft setup for IT admins guide walks through both, plus how Rivvi reads across multiple workspaces.

​
What Rivvi can do with Power BI

Read (allowed by default)
  • List every workspace the connection can access.
