msmith22, 

that is part of the platform themes, and you can change the color background and other accent colors, you can find that documentation on the following link

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/return-to-workplace/deploy#step-6-publish-a-t...

Please let me know if this will help you!

That's a great start.  I was looking at that earlier but when I publish that theme, I'm not aware where I can go into the PowerApp for Return to the Workplace and apply that theme.

Any guidance there is greatly appreciated.

Can't get the PowerBI report to connect to data source. I dont get any options for authentication method. Any ideas?

We have seen this issue more often. Please uninstall the App, install it again and when connecting to the CDS environment please add https:// before the url. Then it will pick up the right way of authentication. (now it things it is http:// see screenshot, which is wrong)

Uninstall the PowerBI Apps or the PowerApp ?

[wbakker-11]

Only the PowerBI App where you are encountering this issue on...

I was able to fix this just by adding https:// to the extensionDataSourcePath

We are looking at deploying the MS Return to the Workplace App but I am a little confused with the licence requirements (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/sample-apps/return-to-workplace/overview#licensing-requir...).

Does this mean we would require a "Per User" licence for all users of the PowerApp?

Any advice would be appreciated.

@arewethereyet The requirements still don't list Power Automate per user license requirement either, and I have learned that solution does require it for all the flows to properly work. Not sure why Microsoft has not added that to the list.

Licensing is very confusing, isn't there one license for PowerAutomate + PowerApp. Currently PowerAutomate per user is $15 and PowerApp per user is $40 = $55?

The PowerApp per app license is $10 with the 2 app limit may be enough for this.
