Responsive ResidentApp owns Data - Masteruser (Pro/PPU licensed) - Do we still need capacity?
Hi,
I am a bit confused between Masteruser approach in App owns Data vs User owns Data in Power BI Embedded
Amongst other things/differences that I would like to understand, the licensing piece is something I want to understand better. From what's mentioned in other forums for "User owns data" we do NOT need capacity (A1 SKU) if both the author & consumer have Pro/PPU license.
Is this true for "App owns data - MasterUser" approach also? If the author/publisher of the report is Pro/PPU user, and the Masteruser is also a Pro/PPU license do we still need a capacity (A or EM SKU)?
Yeah any person creating datasets/reports will need a Pro/PPU license.

Hi cyclist007
As long as the app owns data is being consumed by users who do not have Power BI licenses then you would need an A or EM SKU.
cyclist007Thanks, so it basically means the Masteruser should be a Pro/PPU license holder? (and then there is not a requirement for capacity). This has not been clearly mentioned in the documentation for App owns data.
