1. Microsoft Learn, Power Platform Documentation. "Share a canvas app in Power Apps." Under the "Share an app" section, it states: "After you create a canvas app that addresses a business need, specify which users in your organization can run the app and who can modify and even reshare it. You specify each user by name, or you can specify a security group in Microsoft Entra ID." This directly confirms sharing is the required action.
2. Microsoft Learn, PL-900 Learning Path. "Create a canvas app in Power Apps." In the "Share an app" unit, the first paragraph reads: "Now that you have a fully functional app, the final step is to share it with the users who will be running the app." This aligns with the core requirement of the question.
3. Microsoft Learn, Power Platform Licensing Guide. "Overview of licensing for Microsoft Power Platform." The document details how licenses are assigned to users to grant them rights to use Power Platform services. It clarifies that licensing is a user-centric concept, managed at the tenant level, not an app-specific setting controlled by the maker. See the "Power Apps and Power Automate use rights included with Microsoft 365 licenses" section for examples of user-based licensing.
