    Hi. I can't understand if you are talking about Premium Capacity or Premium per User.

    If you are talking about Capacity then there are no limitations. It's the maximum license allowing everything at PowerBi. A user with license can be member of a workspace, but free users can only be added on the App to view reports (that is not bad because they are free and can see shared content)

    If you are talking about Premium per User, it works like PRO license. You can create, build and share content only for other Premium per Users.

    I hope that make sense.

Thanks for the answer. I am sorry, yes I was referring to premium capacity. So according to your user free user cannot access directly to the workspace but only to the apps.

Correct?

    Yes. I do remember some doc saying Free users can only check reports under Apps or Shared with me. Usually apps is the best choice because it let you share multiple content in a single place.

    I hope that helps,
