Sharing app with external users
Hi, I have been working with Power Bi for some time now, and have some uncertainties about sharing an Power BI app with external users. At the moment I share my app by going to the workspace ...
Groups are Office 365 groups. Adding a group allows everyone in that group permissions.
Not sure about the external users and why you have to do extra work for them.
The last one, it allows them to reshare the report to others but I do not believe it allows them underlying access to the dataset to build their own reports. Reshare is a specific permission role.
Thank you for your reply Greg_Deckler.
When you share an Power BI app that you created with the use of underlying datasets, don't you need to add the external users to the underlying datasets?
About resharing, this is the same for apps? They can reshare an app to other external users and those new users get the roles read and reshare?
- For external that may be. I'd check the Issues forum or open a support ticket on it, might be by design or could be a bug.
I'd have to look into resharing an AppThank you, I will check the Issues forum.
