Hello everyone,
I want to set up a SQL Server connection between a local database and Power BI online with the SQL Server premium connector. I found out that to use the premium connectors I need a Power Apps license. My question now is, does every user who works with Power BI needs a Power Apps license or only the one person who sets up the connection and the other users who use the connection through Power BI only need a Power BI license?
Thanks for your help.

Hi @Anonymous
Most probably only the user that is set on scheduled refresh needs the licence, the consumers of the report will not need it.
