Hey @powerbiexpert22 ,

if the workspace that is "hosting" the items used in the app is backed by

• Premium Per Capacity (P or F capacities), consumers of the app only need the Power BI Free license assigned
• Premium Per User, consumers of the app have to have the Premium Per User license assigned
• Pro licensing, consumers of the app have to have a Power BI Pro icense assigned

Hopefully, this provides what you are looking for

Regards,

Tom

Hi @powerbiexpert22, Hope you are doing good!

Viewing and opening an app requires certain permissions. The recipient must have a Power BI Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) license, or the app must be shared with the recipient in a type of cloud storage called Premium capacity.

Hi @powerbiexpert22 - Yes, Power BI Pro license is required to access and interact with Power BI apps.to access apps created and shared by others, a Power BI Pro license is usually needed. If the app is shared with a user who does not have a Pro license, they will be prompted to upgrade to Power BI Pro to view the content.
