Would like to be able to easily switch between different organisational accounts. As an ISV I support multiple customers with multiple logins, switching between them all is a RPITA.

RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
Yes! We need to be able to switch like we do with Azure Portal without having to log out.
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
This is also a security feature, to avoid publishing reports on wrong tenants.
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
Me too
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
Related, there should be a command line switch for this. So that I can have shortcuts for launching PBI desktop for each of my customers.
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
It's very annoying to log out and log in to check reports from another account...
Espescially when you need ot develop dashboard/reports for different customers
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
This is critical for larger organizations and consultants.
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
At a minimum, PBI Desktop should manage Switch Account just like Office apps, i.e. remember accounts and credentials. This is very convenient when you load/save Excel files to Onedrive for Business.
I'd also love to be able to associate specific PBIX files with user accounts, so that opening a client file switches me to their account.
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
This is required in big time for us as well. As a consultant you work on multiple client projects and it would be very useful to switch between accounts
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
Huge need for us! We drive adoption at a variety of clients. Not being able to see which account I am logged into is bad enough! But I really need to be able to switch easily between accounts as well.
Thanks! Scott
RE: Be able to easily switch between accounts
as a consulting guy, I agree. I have to manage multiple clients and they are switching to Power BI. start to be hard to demonstrate the Cortana integration from my laptop or phone.
