Power Pages Licensing Question
Hi JenMac,
What exactly does "standalone Power Apps portals use rights" include?
D365 Enterprise Apps are granted use rights for Power Pages, with exceptions. For details, please review pgs.58 of the D365 LG. In summary:
- The D365 LG confirms that a license is required for restricted tables & users who create, update, or delete data (CRUD) stored within restricted tables. To determine which licenses are required for restricted tables, please review Restricted tables requiring Dynamics 365 licenses.
- Also, when Managed Environments are activated in a specific environment, all Power Apps (as well as Power Automate, Microsoft Copilot Studio, & Power Pages) usage in that environment requires standalone licenses. Licensing - Power Platform | Microsoft Learn
Does that mean they are not required to purchase users specifically for the portal?
I'm not clear on what you mean by "purchaser users for the portal". Would you mind clarifying please?

To confirm, you're asking if a licensed D365 Enterprise user has use rights to Power Pages Anonymous users & Power Pages Authenticated users?
If so, it depends on whether the Authentic users are internal or external. The Partner should review the definition of authentic & anonymous users, then reconcile with the licensing documentation. Ex: a D365 Enterprise license is sufficient for internal Authentic users.

- JenMacFeb 08, 2024Copper ContributorI know for D365 Professional (that does not include "standalone Power Apps portal use rights") it is required to purchase external users. The question is whether the "standalone Power Apps portals use rights" included in D365 Enterprise extends to external users or if it is required to purchase anonymous or authenticated users for external users? If it is required to purchase anonymous or authenticated users for external users, has it been that way for the last several years or is that a relatively new change?

hmmm...I did not mention D365 Professional.
Please review my previous reply to learn which Power Apps use rights are included with D365 Enterprise.
