Common data service/ dataverse for users

[abhishek_123]

Organization with Microsoft365 plan where i created a powerapp in default environment connected to CDS or DataVerse. Entity permission given to other users.

Once the app is shared,  can other users access the app ?  Is CDS free to use and share in default environment ?

Hi @abhishek_123,

No, unfortunately Dataverse (formally CDS) is not free and requires a Dataverse or Dynamics 365 license to use them and connect to them with the Power Platform connectors. The license required (and assigned to users) are one of the following:

1. Power Apps per app plan
2. Power Apps per user plan
3. Any D365 types

For more info on licensing:

Hope this helps...
