When an app has been published and not pushed to end users via the Install app automatically feature described in the previous section, a one-time install per user is necessary. This install can be completed by either sharing the URL for the app with users or by instructing users to add the app in the Power BI service.

In the following example, a user has logged into the Power BI service and clicked Get apps from the Apps menu to observe the Global Sales app: 

The Apps menu can be found below the Recent menu and above the Shared with me menu. By clicking Get it now, the app will be added to the Apps menu of the user, as shown in the following screenshot:

Users can hover over the app icon, such as GS in this example, to either mark the app as a favorite or to remove the app. A new feature expected in 2018 is the ability to automatically install apps for users. For example, once the Global Sales app is published, all users assigned to the Global Sales Team security group would have the app.

A second option to install the app is to share the URL to the app provided in the Power BI service. As per the Publishing apps section, this URL is provided in a dialog when the app is first published. Additionally, this URL can be obtained from the Access page of the Apps menu, as per the following screenshot:

In the preceding example, a member of the Global Sales app workspace has clicked Update app from the top-right corner of the app workspace and navigated to the Access page. The App URL, as well as other URLs specific to dashboards and reports within the app, is located below the Permissions input box.
