License required for Dataflows

Posted on 15 Feb 2021 16:32:01 by 1

Hi,

 

I need to create a Dataflow inside my Power App to read Excel files from Sharepoint Online and write some data in Dataverse tables.

It seems I can't do it with my "Power Apps per app license".

Do I need a "Power Apps per user license" instead to manage Dataflows properly?

 

In my scenario (read from Sharepoint Online and write to my own tables in Dataverse) is there any difference in proceeding with one (per app plan) o the other (per user plan) license?

 

Thanks!!

    You should be able to do this with the per app license, but there is currently a bug that Microsoft is trying to fix when detecting this scenario.  So it may prompt you for either a per user license or to start a trial when adding this flow.  But users of the app should be able to do it with just the per app license.  However since this is triggered from inside a Power App each user will need either a per app or per user license to run the app and its associated flow.  So you definitely won't be able to do this with just one per app license.
