Unable to open custom apps after visiting workspaces/reports

Hi

 

I am working on a project whereby we are moving away from workspaces, reports and dashboards and are adopting Apps as a way of servicing reports to end-users. I've come across a specific problem that tars the experience of an end-user and was wondering if this is something Microsoft are aware of. I will present two scenarios in more detail which will hopefully explain my problem.

 

Scenario where the above issue does not occur:

 

  1. Start a new session and log into Power BI service using usual credentials.
  2. Navigate into the App section. 
  3. Click on any custom-built app.
  4. App opens. 

 

Scenario where the above issue does occur:

 

  1. Start a new session and log into Power BI service using usual credentials.
  2. Navigate into the Workspace section.
  3. Open any workspace and/or report.
  4. Navigate into the App section.
  5. Click on any custom-built app.
  6. Nothing happens. 
  7. Refresh the session and click on any custom-built app.
  8. App opens.

 

Now it may not seem as a big issue, but when it's a case of several hundred end-users, this becomes rather poor experience that detriments our roll-out. 

 

Is this something you're aware of; are able to resolve? 

 

Thanks

    We recently started to experience this as well (last couple weeks).  It wasn't happening before that.  I don't think it necessarily relates to being in a workspace beforehand as it happened to a user who doesn't access workspaces.

     

    We are prepping for a rollout to 18,000 in a month so I hope it gets resolved soon!
