Is the app shared with everyone?

Hi@StretchFredrik ,

The app is published on a SharePoint page and people have been given access to the SharePoint site.

Yes but has the App been shared with anyone - if this is a standalone App that has been embedded in a SharePoint page, you will still need to share the App itself with any users, from the properties page of the App or from the make.powerapps.com portal - I would suggest sharing it with a security group so that you have a minimal amount of effort when people need to be onboarded - if they are a member of the security group they will get access, and if they are removed from the security group, then they can no longer access it 🙂

Hi @iAm_ManCat ,

The app is published on the SharePoint Page,and the link is shared with the users.Users who have access to the SharePoint site can also access the App.

Is there any other way to share the app with users or any limitation in SharePoint for user access? I am not able to know the reason why this error is showing.

Please help!

Yes, so as I said, they have access to the SharePoint page, not the App.

If this is a custom form on a list, then the permissions are inherited from the site, but this sounds like you embedded a standalone app in a SharePoint page, which will still need the App itself to be shared with whoever wants to access it via that embed.

In that case you will need to share the APP with the same people.

Go to make.powerapps.com

click Apps along the left rail

tick your app from the list

click share in the command bar

Then type the security group or names of the people who need access to the App and click their names to add them to the list of authorised users for the App.

Click Share
