Power BI is a set of diverse tools and methods used to analyse and visualise unprocessed business data in order to boost an organisation's performance. It allows you to produce reports and graphics utilising a variety of datasets. Exporting data straight to platforms such as Azure SQL, and SharePoint lists, among others is the largest benefit. It can also be used to broaden the scope of the What-if analysis. Power BI is a tool used by business analysts to find underlying patterns and connections between data variables, revealing accurate information that can be communicated with all users of an organisation. One of the most popular and rapidly expanding corporate analytics services is Microsoft Power BI. Your go-to resource for extracting insights from a company's internal data is Power BI apps.
Power BI creators can produce officially packaged content and then make it available as an app for download by a large audience. Apps are developed in workspaces where team members can work together on Power BI material before distributing the finished product to a single user, sizable groups of users, or the entire enterprise. Because the application can have rights that are distinct from those specified on the workspace, designers can more easily control permissions on such collections by utilising an app.
Dashboards, spreadsheets, datasets, and reporting are all brought together in one place via an app. Each content category may be included in one or more bundles in an app.
A template app is a particular class of app. A Power BI Pro or Premium Per User licence is necessary to install, modify, and distribute a template app. Power BI partners create and bundle analytical content into apps using Power BI template apps. They then distribute the app to additional Power BI tenants using any platform accessible, such as AppSource or their personal web service.

The Power BI apps marketplace allows you to search for and download applications. You may find both organisational apps and template apps in the app store.
3. Once you click on “Get apps” the “marketplace” is displayed on the screen.
There are three options you can use:
All apps: Here, you can look at all of the organisational and template apps that are available to you. The one with the shopping bag icon in the top right corner of the app's tiles basically denotes template apps.

Template apps: Appsource hosts a number of template apps, which you can browse.

The easiest activity a Power BI developer can complete is effectively developing a Power BI App. Follow these instructions after logging into the Power BI service and going to the workspace from which you wish to develop the app.
1. For the reports you want to include in the Power BI App, toggle the Include in App button, which is found to the right of the report name. You may easily return to this view later and re-toggle the button if you decide to switch and wish to include or exclude one.
2. On the upper right corner of the workspace, click on the Create App button.
3. Finish the Setup screen's fields.
The end-users will see the App name and search for it based on that.
The description field, which is necessary, might give visitors context who are inexperienced with the reports.
Even though you can add a URL link to your support website here if you do have one, for instance, a team SharePoint, this field is not necessary.
You can add a team logo and choose a colour to the app to make it your own.
Choose the necessary contact details; the email address linked to the Power BI account used to develop the app will be displayed as the default under Show app publisher.
4. Finish the Navigation window to configure the side panel of the app, that is used to navigate between the included reports (you can access this page by selecting Navigation at the top).
Given that this is a new app, leave the New Navigation Builder toggle set to On.
By using the up/down arrows or the eye symbol in the Navigation area of this screen, you may choose the order in which the reports should be shown. You can also choose to hide them. Additionally, you can add a Section by selecting + New. A section is a means to organise the contents in the programme, similar to a desktop's folder system.
5. Permissions page, which is the final one, is where permission to the app is granted.
The app will be accessible to everyone with access to the shared workspace in which the reports are kept. Enter the name or email of any more users you wish to grant access to. You can even grant access to the entire organisation if your company permits it, although this is not advised.
For your specific use case, verify the 3 check-boxes suitable user access settings.
6. Publish the app to complete its development by pressing the link in the bottom right corner that says "Publish app."
7. Select the Update app button in the upper right corner of the app to update it by adding or removing reports or changing any of the settings.
