Distributing Power BI Apps the Right Way
Details
🎯 The Problem: You built amazing reports. Now 500 people need access. Do you share the workspace? Create an app? What about external partners? And your developers want API access...
💡 This Evening: We'll untangle the distribution mess with a clear decision tree - from workspace sharing to enterprise-wide Org Apps to programmatic GraphQL access.
⏱️ Save yourself: The chaos of "which app was it again?" and permission nightmares. Proper distribution scales cleanly.
What you'll learn:
📦 Power BI Apps - Package and distribute report collections, and WHY apps provide better UX than workspace sharing (curated experience, no clutter)
🏢 Org Apps - Enterprise-wide deployment, and WHY Org Apps solve the "which app?" problem (one-click access from Teams/Office)
🔌 API for GraphQL - Programmatic data access for developers, and WHY GraphQL beats REST for flexible queries (ask for exactly what you need)
🕸️ Graph Visualization - Network and relationship visualization, and WHY Graph complements traditional charts (see connections, not just numbers)
Distribution Decision Tree:
- Small team → Share workspace
- Department → Power BI App
- Entire organization → Org App
- External partners or Apps → GraphQL API
Who should attend: Power BI admins managing distribution, Developers building data-driven apps, Architects designing self-service platforms
