PPU Workspace

Hi,

 

 

I have created a workspace with a Premium Per User account. I have two questions:

1. Is only user who has PPU license available? Can't Pro users access and use it?

2. Which license do I need to view it if I built an embbed report from this workspace(PPU)?

 

Thanks in advance!

@misaki233 , I think you need PPU user, refer to this part of the doc

"Users must have a Premium Per User (PPU) license to access content in a Premium Per User (PPU) workspace or app. This requirement includes scenarios where users are accessing the content through the XMLA endpoint, Analyze in Excel, Composite Models, and so on. You can grant access to users to the workspace who don’t have a PPU license, but they will receive a message stating they cannot access the content."

I think, Embedding you should be able to manage with one user and have your own RLS
