Hi Everyone, not sure if this is the right area for this question.

I was wondering if anyone can reassure me about one thing. For a customer we deployed some users with a Dynamics 365 Team Member License. Online i do not find clear statements regarding limitantions of this license with regards to powerapps. Basically i created an embedded app with a system administrator user, shared it with the team members, however i get the message that the CDS connector requires a specific PowerApps License. Therefore i'd like to know if this is true.

 

Thanks!

Nik

    Here is the relevant section from the Power Apps licensing guide.  See footnote #1.  Basically, Team members can't run custom apps using a Team Member license alone. As I understand it this is so companies can't bypass Dynamics 365 licensing for applications by building custom apps that replicate what the regular Dynamics apps do.
