    Hi Stuartb113,

     

    1. Generally speaking, if you want to sharing something, you need a pro account.

    1.1 If you share a dashboard, both the authors and recipients need a pro. powerbi-service-share-unshare-dashboard.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    1.2 If you use Power BI Premium, readers don't need a Pro. The author who create Apps and share still needs a pro.

    >>>Power BI Premium is an add-on to Power BI Pro; therefore Premium requires Pro licenses.

    powerbi-premium-faq and powerbi-premium

    1.3 If you publish the content to web (the internet), no Pro is needed. But this isn't proper for most corporations.

     

    2. With App workspace (Premium ), RLS roles only can be applied to read-only members. It works fine with sharing Dashboards except some limitations.

    >>>

    • Only ETL, and DirectQuery connections are supported. Live connections to Analysis Services are handled in the on-premises model.

    And more, please reference here: powerbi-admin-rls (Limitations.)

     

    Best Regards!
