Must you have Pro License to view PowerBi reports in PowerPoint through add-on?

[Anonymous]

With the new add-on released allowing users to add live reports into a powerpoint presentation, I was wondering what licesencing would another user need to have to be able to interact with the report in a shared powerpoint file.

The image above is from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-power-bi-powerpoint-add-in-about.

Does the requirement stated mean that any free user can view live reports in powerpoints that a person uploads to a capacity workspace? And can you access the capacity workspace with a PPU license?

Any information on how to get around this requirment so that powerpoints can be interacted with by free users is much apprieciated.

I have no experience with PPU but from my limited understanding all users need to have that.

Note that there is a difference between a "capacity"  and a "license" .  So "Premium capacity license"  is not a thing.

the behavior is exactly the same as in your Power BI environment.  If you have a Premium capacity and share via app then any user (even if they don't have a Pro license)  can consume the reports. In all other scenarios your users need licenses.

I understand, thank you for your help.

Does it work the same for a user with PPU license or do you have to own Pemium capacity license?
