Solved: App Workspace stopped sharing to free users (Share...

Anonymous · ‎05-16-2019

Hi,

I only have a Pro License and I am sharing my reports to Sharepoint Embedded so that the users(Free license) in our organization can access my reports. It was working fine for the past months until today and I did not change anything. Users now are having an error when they view the report from the Sharepoint site "This content in not available". The user who is having the error is added into the app as an Owner and also a member in the sharepoint site.

Does anybody know what happened or was there a change in licensing that I did not know about?

@Anonymous You must have been exploiting a technical hole that they filled. Based on licensing alone, you should not be able to share content to a free user. Either they need to have a Pro license, or you are covering their license by purchasing Premium or embedded. If you got this to work without those licenses, that should be considered a gap or bug, and they have apparently filled it.
