PowerApps asks users to allow data source

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hi There,

 

When I use the powerapps custom visual in Power BI, I can use it perfectly fine,

 

When my end user uses it using their credentials it asks them to allow powerapps to use the data source feeding powerapps? I dont understand why this would happen?

 

Please see screen shot attached

 

Thanks,

Alexander

    This is normal behavior for PowerApps. After they do it the first time they shouldn't have to in the future.

    Read more in the following blog:

    Please note the following:

    "

    Once you are satisfied with your changes, make sure to share the PowerApps app with users of your report and then save your report. 

    You will need to share the PowerApps app separately from your report. Learn about sharing apps in PowerApps.

    "

    And when users use the App for the first time, the App would require user authentication for the resourced used within it.

     

    Regards,

    Michael
