The second step now focuses on completing pre-deployment activities.&#x20;

Prior to deployment, you'll need to have two app registrations, one for the EmbedFAST API and another for the Power BI Service.

An app registration in Azure provides your application with a unique identity by assigning a unique ID to your application and establishing interaction rules with Azure services. This improves security by ensuring access is granted only to authorized users or applications. This process facilitates the use of Azure's authentication and authorization features, thereby simplifying the creation of secure, user-friendly applications.&#x20;

You'll also need to configure the Power BI Tenant settings to work with Power BI related APIs.
