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.

September 2024: Org apps as items are now in public preview - support for multiple apps per workspace, custom colors, and more: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/org-app-items/org-app-items

May 2024 update: We are working on creating a separate app as an artifact which will release in the coming months. thank you all for the feedback.

March 2022 update: we plan to have a private preview soon and hopefully release to the public in July

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This is really needed to ensure we share different content with different groups of users and still have a single space for development.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This would be really useful, with one app per workspace I may as well just give my users access to the workspace

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This would make it a bit easier to publish to large amounts of users. We would like few workspaces with few content-creators, but many different groups have access to many different apps.

We definitely need this

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

The current design is not supportable long term. The complexity of having a 1:1 ratio of apps to workspaces cannot be support in a large organization.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

Definitely a feature which would help us by eliminating multiple workspace

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This is a good feature but I would think that allowing app workspaces to be published with different RLS would work the same way/ if not better

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

Same issue here - we have a single data model / workspace used to create a wide variety of different reports which serve different purposes with different audiences. The 1:1 workspace - app relationship is going to make this quite time consuming to manage.

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace

This is definitely a worthwhile bit of functionality that would bridge the gap between the old concept of "Workgroups", Content Packs, and Apps.
