Enable a report server for Power BI Mobile access

You can use the Power BI Mobile app to consume Mobile Reports. There are a few things that you need to configure to allow the Power BI Mobile app to connect to Reporting Services.

Reporting Services native mode required

Mobile Reports are a feature of native mode. They aren't available in SharePoint Integrated mode. The Power BI Mobile app only works with a native mode instance.

Enable basic authentication

The iOS Power BI Mobile app requires basic authentication to connect and consume Mobile Reports. Reporting Services isn't configured with basic authentication enabled by default. For information on how to configure basic authentication, see Configure basic authentication on the report server.

You also need to have Windows authentication enabled to allow the publisher app to publish Mobile Report.

Enable HTTPS

You should enable HTTPS in Reporting Services if you enable basic authentication. If you enable HTTPS, make sure that the certificates used can be trusted with the client devices running the iOS Power BI Mobile app. Be sure that the certification chain is valid and available to the client device.

If you need to use a self-signed certificate for development or evaluation purposes, you can export the certificate from the report server and install it on the mobile device. Refer to your device documentation on how to install it on that device.

For more information on enabling TLS, see Configure TLS connections on a native mode report server.

Review firewall settings

You should review your firewall settings to ensure that all devices can connect successfully to Reporting Services.

For more information on how to configure the Windows Firewall, see Configure a Firewall for Report Server Access.
