What you'll learn: the four ways to share Power BI and who actually needs a license in each; how the F64 threshold really works — and where teams quietly misapply it; how embedding (App Owns Data) lets viewers in at zero license cost, at any capacity size; a worked cost example that takes a 100-user licensing bill down 60–70%; and a four-question framework to pick your route.
Why this guide is different: most licensing guides still describe 2022 — per-user seats and legacy Premium P-SKUs. This one is written for the Fabric era (F-SKUs, OneLake, App Owns Data), focuses on the delivery model instead of a feature list, and hands you real numbers and an actionable checklist — not a sales sheet.
