How to Share Your Power BI Dashboards and Reports to Valotalive Digital Signage in Less Than 10 Minutes
Step 1: Sign up to activate the Valotalive Microsoft Power BI app with secure integration
Create your Valotalive account here for free, and activate the Microsoft Power BI Dashboards or Report app (under Apps).
You will then be asked to authenticate Valotalive with Microsoft Power BI cloud using your MS credentials. If you want to make sure no sensitive data is being brought to Valotalive, do this using an AD user that has limited permissions on Microsoft’s side.
Step 2: Choose displayed content in the app settings
Next, head over to your Power BI app settings in Valotalive. Use the drop-down menu to choose your Workspace and the right report. You can set the app to scroll through the different tabs, in your Power BI Report, you want to display.
Step 3: Show your Power BI content on a screen
We recommend starting with the Valotalive My Display Chrome extension to easily test what your content flow looks like on a digital signage info screen without having to set up one.
