Hi
Scenario
An app is made by a Pro licence and is 'stored' in a premium workspace.
Can any user (if the organisation installs everyone Power Bi with a free license) view the app content when they are a member of a security group?
And is it truely a free license?
Regards Gary 🙂

@gazzo1967 Yes. For a Premium workspace (not a Premium Per User workspace) you need a Pro license to publish content but anyone with a free license and access to the workspace/app or a specific report within the workspace can view it.

We have a few people using the Power BI Desktop, which is supposed to be free, but now they are getting a message that says the free version expired. I know absolutely nothing about Power BI and I am not an administrator or software guru, but have been tasked with finding out what we need to do. In plan and easy terms, how do we get the free version to extend? Thank you.

Okay, maybe I didn't make myself clear with my question. We have 3 users of Power BI Desktop. None of them share data. Per my understanding this means they are using an license that doesn't expire, yet some are getting messages the Power BI Desktop is expiring. Do they need to do anything to continue to use the current license? Thank you.
Hey @Anonymous ,
please provide a screenshot of that message, stating that Power BI Desktop is expiring. I never heard of any such message before.
Regards,
Tom
