PA Portals - Licensing questions

Dear all,

 

  I'd like to understand deeply Power Apps Portal licensing for external (authenticated) users. 

If I navigate to "https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/portals/", I can see that this portal costs 200$/month. And below that sentence, it says "100 daily logins sessions". This leads me to believe that an undetermined number of external users could access monthly, at a rate of 200$, while no more than 100 users log in on the same day.

 

But when I revise the Power Apps Portal licensing guide, in "Power Apps, Power Automate and Power Virtual Agents Licensing guide.pdf (Feb 2020)", I cannot read any reference to the previous conditions. Moreover, what I can read is that "100 logins per month" cost 200$.

 

So my mind is confused... Does that mean that there is only a limitation of no more than 100 logins per day? Or does it mean no more than 100 logins may access the portal per month? Or perhaps does this mean that no more than 100 logins may be done per day AND no more than 100 logins may be done per month?

 

Depending on the answer, customers may be interested in portals or not due to "excessive" monthly costs. 

 

Thank you a lot for your attention and help!

    Hello,

     

    I will try answer your questions regarding PowerApps Portal licensing.

     

    First let us start with the fact you need a minimum of 100 logins and 50k of page views per production portal.

     

    The login is for unique logins per contact per day.  If the same user logs in 20 times in the same day, it still only counts as one login.

     

    Using this link:  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/powerapps-flow-licensing-faq#add-ons

     

    You will need one of login items and one of the page view items to convert a trial portal to production.

     

    Let's say we just need the one portal:

    1- Login (100)          $200

    1-Page View 100K   $100

     

    Since we only need 50K min. of page views, we could add a second portal by simply buying one more item of the logins.

    Two Portals:

    2- Login (100)          $400

    1-Page View 100K   $100

     

    I hope this helps clear things up.  However, if you still need additional assistance, please contact our Billing Support Team.

    I need small clarification. 1 page view 100k for 100$ ,I belive for external anonymous users those are not registered in AD.

    My understanding is right?

    Hello Jatan,

     

    Your understanding is correct.  Page views are for external anonymous users of the portal.

     

    Thanks,

    Where can I see how many logins have been used in a month? What happens if you go over the number of logins you purchase for the month? Does the portal shut down? Are additional blocks automatically added?
