Cannot Share App Externally?
Hi MarkEvansHW ,
Can I know how do you share App with your own external account before? With Azure AD B2B? If you got any mail in external account mailbox after shared?
In normal situation, when you share content with external users, they will receive an email with a link to the shared contents. The external user must sign in with their organization email address, they'll receive a prompt to accept the invitation after signing in. After signing in, the app opens for these external users. It will not in the usual Power BI portal. If they already exit the app and want to get to the app again, they should bookmark the link or save the email and access it by the saved link. You can check this documentation for full details.

I used the "permissions" tab within the "publish app" function.
I have an update. I tried adding another external email (my personal yahoo.com email) - it worked as expected. Not clear why first email didn't work. That makes me slightly nervous about how it might work with other external email addresses, but I will have to see what happens.
Hi MarkEvansHW ,
Which type of your first email address? Is it a work or school email address? And whether the feature "Export and sharing settings" be enabled properly?
Best Regards
