If I push an app to an external user, they are provided with a link to the app, this requires the end user to bookmark this URL or continually refer back to the invite email

It would be better if the shared app appeared in the Apps list, or the "Shared with me" section within their Power BI service login

It is so important, Microsoft please make this a reality.

This functionality must be needed. It will make our work smooth and faster, will be happy if you work on this idea and make these changes in upcoming release.

Agreed. We had received a hearing from our MD that how come this basic feature cannot be given by Microsoft Power BI when they are competing with other very good products in market

This is exactly what we need, having the users to reuse the URL and making a bookmark is not a user friendly solution specially for CFO's CEO's etc.

This functionality is so important as more and more Power BI is being used by service organisations.

This is a big thing for me as well, with the potential for needing to manage over 6k clients, the support desk could get inundated with people losing links.
