It's great that we can now give guests from our parent company (different Azure) Pro licenses in our Power BI tenant.

Sadly the issue now is that of course they cannot publish from Power BI Desktop to our Service using their account / guest user.

I see this is currently by design but we really need this in place to continue our workflow as we currently do (they have to use second accounts in our domain currently).

RE: Allow guest users to publish from Desktop to Service

At this moment, as a Power BI consultant, I can't publish reports to my customer's Power BI tenant with my own account. It would be super handy to be able to choose the tenant to publish to, where I have at least contributor permissions to one or more workspaces.

This is also interesting for people that develop reports for other companies, even more interesting when you also work on a shared dataset
