Hello @ShivangiB1!

You can publish the dashboard using a Service Principal via API, which allows you to embed it in SharePoint without requiring individual user logins.
For more details, please refer to the documentation here: https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/dashboards/#use-a-service-principal-to-publish-and-share-dashboards

Hi @Advika , thanks for the reference document, but here we don't have the process to allow service principal access.

Below is the process i followed:

1.Created service principal.

2.Gave that service principal access to dashboard.

3.Generate embeded code and put it into sharepoint.

Embeding worked, but it is asking for login.We don't want separate login.We wish once we login in sharepoint it should login in dashboard too.

Can you please help or let know if we are doing any step wrongly.
