    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You must be the Power BI Service administrator.

    PBI Service admin can use "Admin portal" feature.

Hi Anonymous ,

 

Please refer to the code.

Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount


# Variable to receive the codes of the Power BI workspaces
$Workspace = Get-PowerBIWorkspace -All

# Loop for each workspace and for each dataset, get the data from the column below
$DataSets =
ForEach ($workspace in $Workspace)
    {
    Write-Host $workspace.Name
    ForEach ($dataset in (Get-PowerBIDataset -WorkspaceId $workspace.Id))
        {
        [pscustomobject]@{
            WorkspaceName = $Workspace.Name 
            WorkspaceID = $workspace.Id
            DatasetName = $dataset.Name
            DatasetID = $dataset.Id
            }
        }
    }

# Defines the directory and name of the file to be exported to the CSV file
$Dir = "C:\Users\lionelch\Desktop\Sampledata\MyWorkspace.csv"

# Exports the result to the CSV file in the directory informed above
$DataSets | Export-Csv $Dir -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8


Disconnect-PowerBIServiceAccount

 

--My result

    Hi Lionel

    thanks for answering my question

    It does not appear to be returning records. i modified it like this too, to see on screen output but nothing.

    Note, there is valid data in $Workspace, i ran it on its own in isolation and it output fine

     

     

    $Workspace = Get-PowerBIWorkspace -All -Scope Organization -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -Include All `
    -Filter "tolower(state) eq 'active' and tolower(type) ne 'personalgroup' and tolower(name) eq 'hexit'" `
| Select-Object Id, Name, Type, State, Description, IsOrphaned


# Loop for each workspace and for each dataset, get the data from the column below
$DataSets =
ForEach ($workspace in $Workspace)
    {
    Write-Host $workspace.Name
    ForEach ($dataset in (Get-PowerBIDataset -WorkspaceId $workspace.Id))
        {
        [pscustomobject]@{
            WorkspaceName = $Workspace.Name 
            WorkspaceID = $workspace.Id
            DatasetName = $dataset.Name
            DatasetID = $dataset.Id
            }
        }
    }

$DataSets

     

     

    bear in mind, i am a beginner

    cheers

    hi Lionel

    could it be because i am running this with -Scope Organization. When running the Get-PowerBIDataset manually i get an error

    Hi Lionel,

     

    This works for me, but only for workspaces which have datasets in them.

    Is it possible to get a list of all workspaces, even though they have no datasets yet?

     

    Thank you in advance!
