Power Apps Per App Plan for Portal

(0) Share

Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello Community,

I have a question about the Power Apps "Per App Plan", and would appreciate some pointers. According to Microsoft, the cost is $5 USD per user/app/month. Can this plan be used for the portal user? So instead of incurring the cost from the portal login consumption, can we assign the Per App Plan to each individual portal user? It says the plan can be used to "Run one app or portal per user, stacking licenses for access to each additional as their needs change...." It's not clear to me what it means by be able to run one portal per user...

Appreciate the help!

Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous,

The Power Apps Per App plan has changed since October 2021, which means that you could only grant users access to one app or one portal. In a word, users who are assigned this license could only have access to one app or one portal.

If you grant users access to a portal, then they could not access to other apps like canvas or model-driven. If you have extra need for other apps, you should check for the Add on.

Hi @v-qiaqi-msft ,

Thanks for your reply! But my main question - how can the Power Apps Per App Plan license be assigned to a portal user? A portal user is typically an external contact, and therefore the external contact typically does not exist under the organization's active directory. Therefore, how is it possible to assign licenses to portal users who are external contact?

Unless, is this scenario only possible if the portal users are internal users of the organization?

Thanks.

As I understand you would need to invite the external contact as an Azure B2B (Guest User) and then assign them a power apps license.

Hi @Anonymous ,Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Currently, if you want to grant externals access to Power Apps Portal, you could only buy add-ons as below.

External users (authenticated) will be $200 for 100 logins/month.

External users (anonymous) will be $100 for 100,000 web page views/month.

Internal users are able to access portals using a PowerApps per app or per user plan as per above.

A login provides an external authenticated user access to a single Power Apps portal for up to 24 hours. Multiple logins during the 24-hour period count as one billable login. Internal users can be licensed either by the Power Apps per app or per user plans, or a qualifying Dynamics 365 subscription. Volume pricing available. See licensing FAQs or contact your Microsoft representative for more information.

Check the price and licence: Pricing - Power Apps (microsoft.com)

Hi @planeflake1974 , @v-qiaqi-msft ,

Thank you for the above confirmation, that makes sense!

When it comes to purchasing the add-ons for external authenticated portal users, if we use the volume pricing, could you confirm if my following examples are correct?

1. If the same external authenticated contact logins to the portal for 30 days in a month (i.e. every 24 hours for 30 days), then that's a total of 30 logins for that month under the same user, correct?

2. If we have 300 different external authenticated contact expected to login to the portal for 22 days in a month (i.e. every 24 hours for 22 days), then there will be 6,600 logins for that month, correct?

3. For 6,600 expected logins per month, using the volume pricing, what should be the right combination of Tier pricing units we should purchase? Do we purchase everything under Tier 3 then? or would we need combination of Tier 3, Tier 2, and even Tier 1? I am not clear on how to break down the volume pricing for 6,600 expected logins per month.

Would appreciate further pointers!

Thank you!
