Difference between Access through App and Workspace
If you are publishing an app, you have an option for selecting the required reporsts from a workspace. It's not necessary that you need to publish all the reports in that workspace to the app.
Publishing as an app, the end user can only see the reports which are added in that app and they will not be able to see other reports. But if you give them any role at the workspace level, the users will have visibility to all the reports in that workspace.
Even the least restrictive role, viewer, has visibility to read all the content in that workspace.
If you provide Contributor, Member or admin role at the workspace level, the user will be able to do much more.
So, app is what we usually prefer to share with the end users.
