Power BI Premium per User and App Owns Data Embedded

[CRWolff]

Hi,

I am looking for some guidance here:

Currently for PBI Embedded we would use a Azure Capacity or a PBI Premium Capacity.

Since we now have the possibility to buy single premium licenses could we use one technical account in "App Owns Data" scenarioes with a premium per user license? This seems almost to good to be true.

Any guidance here?

Best Regards

HI @CRWolff 

It seems the answer to this is no. From the documentation...

Embed tokens with Pro or Premium Per User (PPU) license are intended for development testing, so a Power BI master account or service principal can only generate a limited number of tokens. Purchase a capacity for embedding in a production environment.

see Frequently asked questions about Power BI embedded analytics - Power BI | Microsoft Docs for full details.

Hope this helps.
