Pro user being asked to upgrade to Premium for viewing App from Premium Workspace

[csaethre19]

I have a premium license and wanted to create a premium workspace so I can utilize the deployment pipeline feature. However, my users will have pro licenses. When I switch my workspace to use the premium license and I try to view the app on my users end (with pro license) I get a pop-up telling me to upgrade to premium to view this content.

Is there a way around this?

If by premium you mean Premium Per User, that is correct. To see a Pro workspace, you must have at least a Pro license. To see content in a PPU workspace, the users must have the PPU license.

If it is a Pemium Capacity, they only need Power BI Free licenses, but it doesn't sound like that is what you have. 

So you will either need to buy the users PPU licenses (there is a $10/mo addon for Pro licenses) or convert the workspace back to a Pro workspace, which will lose the deployment pipeline feature.
