    Hi @Mahesh7,

    Could you please share a bit more about the Unlicensed user that you mentioned?

    Do you mean that the user does not have PowerApps licenses (PowerApps Plan 1 & PowerApps Plan 2)?

    Does the user have an Office 365 license?

    Further, do you want the unlicensed user to use a canvas app or a custom form in SP list?

    • If you want the the unlicensed user to use a canvas app:

    Actually, if one user want to use PowerApps, he/she does not need to own a certain PowerApps licenses (PowerApps Plan 1 & PowerApps Plan 2). If the user own an Office 365 license, and this O365 license includes PowerApps feature, he/she still could use PowerApps.

    More details about Office 365 licenses which include PowerApps, please check the following article:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/administrator/pricing-billing-skus#licenses

     

    More details about licenses for PowerApps, please check the following article:

    https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/

     

    • If you want the unlicensed user to use a custom form in a SP list:

    If the unlicensed user wants to use a custom form in a SP list, he/she must have enough permisson to access the corresponding SP list, and he/she must need a Office 365 license that includes PowerApps. Please check the following article for more details:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/customize-list-form#administer-your-custom-form

    Thanks @v-xida-msft 

     

    Unlicensed user -> we have 2 type of users, one with O365 like me, and other using different mail service(WIthout O365). 

    But both of us can access SSO and use MS Forms using SSO.  Want to know if other set of user(Using different email service) can sign in to Canvas app made by me. 

     

    Regards, 

    Mahesh
