Thanks, Gilbert. I am sharing out the report via an App, but if Build permissions aren't granted, the user receives an error that they do not have access to the underlying dataset (which is in another workspace).
I'm assuming the only way to grant them access without giving them the ability to build out reports with the dataset is to go into the workspace with the shared dataset, click on the Datasets tab > <DatasetName> ellipssis > manage permissions and grant Read access?

I have used shared datasets via an App and the users have always been able to view the reports.
There is no Row Level Security applied on the datasets?
