Why each option
Sharing a canvas app does not automatically share the underlying Power BI dashboard. Users need explicit access to the Power BI content in the Power BI service.
Power BI content embedded in a canvas app is governed by Power BI's own permission model. The Power BI dashboard must be shared directly with the users (or a group) in the Power BI service; sharing only the canvas app wrapper does not grant access to the underlying report or dashboard data.
The Power BI interactions property controls whether users can interact with visuals (filter, cross-highlight), not whether they can view the content at all.
The Power BI connection in a canvas app is the maker's connection credential; it does not control end-user access to the underlying Power BI dataset or dashboard.
The Display mode property controls whether the tile is visible/enabled in the canvas UI, not the underlying Power BI data access permissions.
