Starting October 2019, several connectors are reclassified from Standard to Premium.

Power Apps licensing FAQ outlines reclassified connectors. Apps using these connectors before the reclassification have been granted an extended timeframe allowing users without a premium license to access these apps.

The following table outlines the designations and which license an end user must have to access an app.

Designation	Definition
Standard	An app that only uses standard connectors. An end user must have a Power Apps for Office 365 plan, per app plan, or a per user plan to access this app.
Extended	An app allowed to use connectors promoted to premium on October 1, 2019. An end user must have a Power Apps for Office 365 plan, per app plan or per user plan. Power Apps licensing FAQ outlines which connectors were promoted to premium on October 1, 2019.
Premium	An app that uses at least one premium connector, a custom connector, or an on-premises gateway. An end user must have a per app plan or per user plan to access.

Note

Power Apps built in Microsoft Teams environments that connect to Dataverse for Teams, or use custom connectors have Premium license designation.

End-users with a Microsoft 365 subscription including Dataverse for Teams use rights will be able to run these apps in Microsoft Teams.
End-users that attempt to run these apps outside of Microsoft Teams are required to have a per app plan or per user plan.

Known issues

The use of a premium connector in a flow connected to an app isn't recognized by the app's license designation.

For example, an app that only uses standard connectors and is connected to a flow using a premium connector, like the HTTP connector, will have the license designation as Standard although it requires the app users to have Premium use rights.
