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
Really need to be able to create multiple apps per workspace
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Thought on this....
Assuming the 1:1 relationship between the Workspace and the App, one option could be to allow the creation of multiple "Views" within the App... Each of such "Views" would have two components:
1) A selection (filter) of which available objects in the App are included.. It would be like the current "Included in App" switch that determines if a Workspace object is included in the App, but in this case to determine if the App object is included in the "View", and
2) Access permissions (entire organization or specific users or groups)
So rather than having the access permissions set at the App level like now, the proposal would be to shift the permissions to the App "Views"...
Maybe in that way, the architecture behind Workspaces and Apps could remain the same...Only security would be needed to be enhanced....
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
fully agree
we re currently working on our governance and this restriction is slowing down our process
would be great to have some new distribution features in the coming releases
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
This would be excellent.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
This would be awsome. Microsoft should investigate ways to reuse powerbi artifacts as much as possible.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Once again, Microsoft's shortsighted development makes no sense. I seriously wonder if MS employees use the tools they create. PLEASE let us make multiple apps per workspace!
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Hello Microsoft team!
As Rui Romano and others, stated, my organization is also experiencing great limitation on the content sharing options. I have summarized my issues in the following blog post:

RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
I completely agree with this feature as it would greatly simply our report deployment capabilities for multiple groups using the same workspace.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
This is a crucial requirement for our enterprise deployment model. I really need to use 'Power BI as a Service' as a data source for a different set of reports (to avoid duplicating my .pbix file) but these reports will be distributed to a different security (AD) group, so will need to be in a separate workspace, unless I can create multiple Apps from the same workspace.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
This is a feature that is really needed in order to share different reports with different groups while still being able to use a single workspace for different datasets/reports.
