Are content packs here to stay?

[edwardrmiles]

Are organizational content packs here to stay? In all the documentaion about them there is the warning "We recommend using apps instead of organizational content packs or read-only workspaces".  I've also read previoulsy that they will be deprecated (but not in the latest documentation)

So Is this still the case? With a content pack a user can 'fork a branch' to their own worksapce which is quite a useful feature for some users not available in apps. If content packs go will this feature be introduce into apps?

Hi edwardrmiles,

Regarding the question whether the organizational content pack will be discarded in the future, I will send a email to consult it internally. Will update here once I get any information.

Currently, power bi apps don’t support the feature of forking a branch(make a copy).
