Deployment Query for Users not having Premium Licences

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hi All,

 

I've created a canvas application that uses a custom connector which connects with my trained ML model through an API, for which I required a premium license.

 

Now the issue is, I want to deploy this Power App for end users, but the company cant afford premium licenses for so many users. What's the best pipeline/way to deploy this so that users can access without having premium accounts?

GPT suggested me to have a premium service account which will be accessing my ML Model. In my app, I could define a power automate flow to call this service account, which would all the way go to my ML model and fetch results from there. Is this practical by any means or are there any other better methods in this use-case?

I have the same question (0)

    If you are using premium or custom connectors within the app, you need premium license. 

     

    One option is you could use Power App premium license for that specific app only.

     

    You can get this license from office 365 admin center.

    Hi @Velegandla,

     

    Thanks for your response. If I buy one license for the App, would that mean multiple users could use that app as a user without having their own premium licenses?

    yes, that is correct.

     

    Please note, If you build a new apps in future, you will need to buy additional licenses.
