**Azure Tenant ID**: Incorporating the Azure Tenant ID into your settings enables Azure AD users to authenticate within your organization. If left empty, your tenant will default to using the common endpoint for login purposes.

Benefits of organizational Azure Tenant ID, using your organization endpoint for authentication as an AD user grants greater control over tenant access and enables the invitation of external AD users to authenticate within your organization.

**Internal Domains:** Serves to differentiate between internal and external users. This is used when the tenant either uses the common endpoint for authentication or when [Microsoft Graph Service Principal](#add-microsoft-graph-service-principal-scim) hasn't been configured.

**Power BI Service Principal**

Using [Power BI Service Principal](/datacentral-knowledge-center/deployments/power-bi-service-principal.md) allows you to embed reports for AD users without Power BI Pro licenses and facilitates report sharing via User Pass and Mobile ID. Additionally, certain features mandate an active Service Principal. Click [here ](/datacentral-knowledge-center/product-guides/features.md)for further details on features.

{% hint style="info" %}
If the checkbox '**Only use Service Principal to manage reports and workspaces in the tenant**' is selected, it signifies that the tenant will exclusively manage reports and workspaces through the Service Principal. Consequently, Azure AD will be unable to view the workspaces accessible to it.
