Hi ksivaganesh99 ,

It's the "refresh the page" part that is confusing me. 

How are you granting permissions to the app -- did you select entire org or enter individual emails?  For the App permissions screen below, exactly how are you filling this out?

 

You write that you "enabled auto install feature and shared the APP url directly to the end users".... so you did both of these things?  Did the users experience the same problem whether they used the auto-installed version of the app AND when they used the link?

Thanks,

Michele

Hi Anonymous ,

 

"Refersh the page" means reloading the browser (browser refresh) page.

 

Permissions to APP-- Added a security group and added it to the permissions list

 

Ya I enabled "auto install" option. This is happening only when the user is clicking on the direct link.

    Hi ksivaganesh99 

    I'm thinking that this is a small bug. 

    IF your users can click on the app itself (you said you are setting it to auto-install), and they do not get this error and the app opens fine,

    BUT your same users click on the link you send them in email/txt, they do get this error

    THEN it sounds like a bug. 

     

    You could search the Issues site first, to see if anyone else has reported this:.  To search the Support site and to submit a ticket, visit https://powerbi.microsoft.com/support/.

     

    HTH,

    Michele
