Business value

Power BI apps are one of the most popular ways to share analytics broadly and securely. Apps are an easy way for authors to share different types of content at one time. App authors create reports, dashboards, and links, and bundle them together into an app. The author can then share or publish the app to a location where users in the organization can access it. Because related Power BI content is bundled together, it's easier for users to find and install it in both the Power BI service and on their mobile devices. After an app is installed, users don't have to remember the names of a lot of different dashboards or reports because they're all together in one app, in a browser or on a mobile device.

Feature details

This new capability will allow app authors to create different versions of an app within the same workspace. Authors can decide which workspace content is shared with specific users and security groups. This streamlines the process for app creation, publishing, and updates. It also helps with content organization by reducing the number of workspaces needed for broad content distribution.
