I'm trying to add power bi tile in side powerapps app, if i tried to add the tile with the account who has the dashboard the tile will appear but when i'm trying to share it with another user, when he is opening the application the tile looks like loading with power bi sign and nothing happen and the tile doen not dispaly anything

Do i need specific license for the employee who I share the app with?

All users have office 365 business essential licenses and we have just one license for power bi pro in order to creating the reports

Thanks

Hi @ahmedadel ,

When you share an app that contains Power BI content, you must share not only the app itself but also the dashboard where the tile comes from.

Please check the following article for more details:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/controls/control-power-bi-tile#sharing-and-security

In other words, the end users must have permission to access your Power BI dashboard. I agree with @xzDan 's thought almost, the end user must own Power BI Pro license, so they could use the Power BI dashboard you shared from your Power BI service.

Best regards,

I think if you are not publishing the Power BI report to the web (for public viewing), then each person who views it will need a Pro license
