    Hi johnkama 

    Yes, the App expects to find the Dataset in the same Workspace that it was built from, which explains your findings.

    However I don't see why you need two Workspaces, you can share a Report from the Workspace used to build the App, if required, and of course putting the Report into the App and then sharing the App will share the Report.

    So usually you only need one Workspace for both sharing and building an App. 

    It may be you want to share the App Reports with more than one Audience, and this is a feature that has just been released for Apps, which may help your requirement.

    See: Announcing Public Preview of Multiple Audiences for Power BI Apps | Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI

    Hope this helps
