Thanks for the reply from lbendlin , please allow me to provide another insight:
Hi Ananth_havanje ,Firstly, if convenient, please confirm the type of database you are using. Is it SQL Server or Data Verse? If your database is of the SQL Server or Data Verse type, they are considered Premium connectors in PowerApps. You’ll need to unlock Premium connector usage for all PowerApps users by purchasing either the Power Apps premium per user license and assigning it to users, or the Power Apps premium per app per user license, which can be assigned to individual users for a specific app. For more details, refer to this official documentation:

Regarding Power BI's convenient licenses, if you don't have the need to refresh large amounts of data, you only need to purchase one power bi pro license per user, which is sufficient for report creation and share viewing.
