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.

Currently we are not planning to allow multiple apps to be published from one workspace. Soon we will allow you to discover and use a dataset across workspaces. Once we have this capability, we believe much of the need for multiple apps per workspace will be addressed.

RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
I concur with the others re: this topic. Adding the ability to publish multiple apps from the same workspace simplifies the environment by reducing workspace clutter and helping to enforce separation of published report, dashboard, and dataset staging from the target applications. The architecture already supports access control separation, this is just the next logical step that is really necessary for enterprise deployment cases
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
Lukasz, the proposed solution of allowing datasets to be used across workspaces in fine, but it doesn't at all solve the problem in the original idea. Multiple apps from a single workspace will solve a great number of user issues outlined in the comments.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
Hi,
I found this ideas because of Curbal youtube channel, and one of the commentor is mentioning about this.. I think this ideas is very excellent if you're thinking on business users perspective.
Previously I wasn't aware of this issue since I'm the developer. But when it is brought up, I realized that not all of users familiar with this tools.. so that being said, UX is the key for business users..
go for it..
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
i think it is a basic feature to help reduce the number of workspaces. I work in a big company and we have many duplicate workspaces for this reason. for example for group a we want to see report a and b. for group b we want to see report a and c. Current solution is two workspaces and report a refreshes everyday two times. Imagine this situation in a big company.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
In consulting, we always start out by creating one collaborative workspace with prototype datasets for proof of concept purposes within clients' PBI Tenant. Oftentimes, they have restriction on how many workspaces can be created within their PBI Tenant. However, if multiple apps can be allowed per workspace, this solves a problem of spinning up numerous workspaces per each combination of users that need access to specific content. Please reconsider this - it is a very, very common use case.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
You should really get the team to reconsider this. I cant see how this would be an efficient use of resources. You would get a lot of additional workspaces created for no real benefit.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
One app per workspace might work for SME, probably not for larger organisations.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
Shared datasets wont fix the issue when there are multiple collaborators on same workspace and one user wants to publish their work but other user is not ready yet. Also, multiple apps will bring in more flexibility on sharing only the relevant reports to the consumers for their areas (like Finance, Sales, marketing etc), even if the workspace is same. Please consider to enable this feature.
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
Having shared datasets will not fix this situation for me at all! Please reconsider!
RE: create multiple apps from same workspace
How would shared dataset overcome the situation where I have 2 group and 2 reports. 1 group needs access to both reports but the other group only needs access to 1 of the report?
in the current method both have to be published to the app and accessible by the groups.
in the example by Lukasz, wouldnt it mean having to duplicate one of the reports in both workspaces?
