Multiple Audiences in the Power BI Apps<\/strong> is released in public preview mode. In other words, one of the most requested features by the community<\/strong> can be used with multiple audiences in a single app and assign different permissions to each group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prior to this feature, to create multiple Apps for different audiences, the App authors had to set up different workspaces to register Apps for each audience. This workspace level isolation resulted in content duplication and operational overhead for the App Authors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this new capability, the authors can decide which content artifact such as reports, dashboards, etc. should be shared with specific audience groups within an App using a single workspace. This allows fine-grained access permissions for the App consumers who can consume various artifacts\u202fin the App based on their group permissions and minimizes operational overhead for the App authors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> We have made some changes to the Workspace UI. Read the Consideration and Limitations<\/strong> section at the bottom of the blog to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get started with the Multiple Audiences for a Power BI App \u2013 The App Author view<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The old app authoring experience to allow Apps authors to seamlessly create audience groups within a Power BI App and add access permissions on the artifacts such as reports and dashboards within the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to get started with the new experience.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step1: Register an app using the Setup Tab<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

App setup tab allows app authors to register an App and add details such as App\u2019s name, description, logo, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 2: Add content artifacts using the new Content tab<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A \u201cContent\u201d tab in the UI experience that allows App authors to easily add content artifacts such as reports, dashboards etc. and even links to other websites. By clicking on \u201cAdd content\u201d button in the \u201cContent\u201d tab, the App authors can select artifacts that they want to add from the current workspace. See below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The App author can also preview the content of the added artifacts. App authors can also add links to websites by clicking the \u201cAdd a link\u201d from the drop-down menu next to \u201cAdd content\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The App author can also change the order of the content artifacts in the App by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Dragging and dropping the artifacts.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    1. Using \u201cmove up\u201d or \u201cmove down\u201d options next to each artifact.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Step 3: Create and manage audience groups using the Audience tab<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      The new \u201cAudience\u201d tab allows App authors to create and manage audience groups within an App. Furthermore, by using the \u201cManage Audience Access\u201d pane, the author can specify which groups or users should be added to the current audience group. The app author can also change the name of the audience by double clicking on the default audience label. The app author can create up to 10 audience groups within an App. By clicking the hide\/unhide<\/strong> icon next to each artifact, the App authors can control the access to each artifact within an App.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Step 4: Share the App with the App consumers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      App authors can share the published apps by clicking the \u201cCopy link\u201d button at the bottom of the Setup page. This generates a shareable app link that App authors can share with their consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      The app consumers can also request access to the app by searching for the app from Apps marketplace or AppSource. Once app is installed, the app authors can visit the app permission management page by clicking on \u201cManage permissions\u201d in their Apps Tab to approve\/decline any access request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      App consumer View<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The App consumers can only see the content artifacts based on the access permissions for their respective audience groups. Consumers who have access to multiple audience groups will see group tabs on the top bar to switch between different audience views easily (as shown below). By default, the consumers are displayed the \u201cAll\u201d tab view, which is a consolidated view showing all content artifacts that they have access to. The App consumer can browse different audience groups tab to see what artifacts are added for that group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
