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
Allowing multiple apps from the same "workspace" is no longer "would be nice", but a necessity. I would even say that not allowing multiple apps from the same workspace, it should be seen as a "Bug" and treated urgently. Implementing this feature (eliminating this limitation) would add enormous value to the product and its customers. So, Microsoft, buy that idea and implement it ASAP, pls.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
any progress in this regard Admin? Same workspace and multiple apps. This will be a blessing, and we will exhaust storage space creating copies of same report in multiple workspace for multiple apps. Please do the needful asap
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Agree with the comments below.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
An update on this Top 20 Idea would be very much appreciated, I won't repeat comments of why this would be useful, this should be obvious by now.
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Yes sorry PowerBi i'm a huge fan of your work but it seems quite logical for a user that a workspace (a place to work) is independant to an audience to share the work with...
In my organisation we have people with little digital literacy that manage some small things and we want to keep it simple by creating 1 workspace per department, with only the analists as members/administrators, we the BA team manage data connection and gateways
We would like them to be able to create one app per audience, from the same workspace...
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Currently in my company, we are an many employes and we need to divide or implement polices, because the same the report need ti stay visible for one, but can't to visible the other person, in the same workspace. Now we are sharing the report for people that cant to see the workspace. But this is very laborious
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
Yep, totally agree. I assumed this was a feature already as it seems so logical. To me the only workaround would be to have loads of workspaces, to control permissions to the various levels of reports etc..... This needs sorting out.....
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
A good addition to the PowerBI package would indeed be to be able to create multiple apps per workspace, so that it can be determined per app which reports / dashboards are displayed. This will make it possible to determine which persons have access to which reports / dashboards and would greatly simplify the implementation of an authorization scheme.
Another possibility could be to create different groups per workspace. It should then be possible for each group to determine which reports / dashboards they have access to.
The above would ensure that less time is needed to maintain the reports / dashboards. At the moment it is the case that if you want to update / adjust a certain dashboard, you have to do this per workspace. With the developments in automation in the current time, it has to be possible to implement this at once for all workspaces or in one workspace in which you could create multiple groups (or thus multiple apps per workspace).
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
has MS stance on this topic changed since the April 04, 2019 response from Sr. Product Manager? If not, the team clearly doesn't understand the practical use case of this product in a large environment. Choices are 1) Hire an army of admins to create and admin thousands of workspaces along with potentially hundreds of redundant reports or 2) find another tool from another vendor (SAP Analytic Cloud, Tableau, )
RE: Create multiple apps from same workspace
This feature is very much required, we have many countries and there exists separate reports for each country, we can't publish all reports to single App and provide access to all country users.
