Hi:
Is it true that you cannot use the free Power BI licensing, if you want to modify a report in an app workspace?
Why is Pro licensing required for such modification? I thought that Pro licensing only came into play for "collaboration/sharing".
Thanks!
John
Solved! Go to Solution.
Think about it - a workspace by default is used for collboration/sharing so it requires Power BI pro or Premium.
Important Note: It is always best to discuss license questions with your Microsoft Account Representative. Each organization is different and may have different nuances that only your account rep would know better.
