    Currently Power BI supports classic windows auth and SQL auth. With 2016 we would like to see Power BI provide the ability to connect to Azure Active Directory Authentication. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sql-database-aad-authentication/

    It is frustrating to share SQL Azure passwords across the team to user Power BI.

    Yep this is pretty frustrating as you'd ideally leverage this for row-level security
