Hi  @Rosabella ,

 

For one workspace,you can only publish one app,you can publish 5 times,but finally you will only get one app.And for each workspace,you can only set one kind of permission for access,which will also applied for the related app.

Here is the reference:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-create-distribute-apps

 

But for workarounds,you can make copies of reports to different workspaces,then you can publish different apps,which will have different access permission.

No, you don't. One workspace = One app.  If you have diverse audience groups you need separate apps.
