Create multiple apps from same workspace infect from same Dataset without replicating the dataset multiple times. only option we have now is to update the app and only one app per workspace can be created which a kind of restrict the workspace usability. If we can create multiple apps share it with different users without creating multiple workspace ... means same dataset no dataset replication, will save the storage as well.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

A must. The 1-1 mapping just doesn't suffice for premium subscribers

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

Giving various users access to different reports within a single published app is a must have. Currently we are having to create multiple apps for a single business category, because we need to have different access levels for each category.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

It would be great to be able to create apps from a workspace with different sets of reports (or even pages from specific reports (a bit like a dashboard)). For example having a workspace for sales which has reports for different sales teams/areas then turning those into apps for each team. Or products, a workspace for reports for different products and then apps with reports for each product. This would make reporting a lot easier to manage and administer.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

I would really like to grant different users the access to different report , while keep on working on single dataset/workspace

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

We are forced to create a workspace per app at the moment which is a management headache.

PowerBI Team, this is an urgent need.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This is the biggest change needed to turn Power BI into an enterprise solution. We have a single dataset and 8 different security roles / user groups in the matrix. We cannot use object security as this (rather than row level) doesn't exist although we have found a workaround with clone facts. If we use our workaround object security users still see a list of reports they shouldnt be able to see and then see blank pages when they click on them. Separate apps sharing a single dataset, however it is implemented, is a must.
