Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
can you try the below code in powershell .
# Define the root directory for the PBIP project
$rootPath = "C:\PowerBIProject"
# Create the main folders
$reportPath = Join-Path $rootPath "Report"
$semanticModelPath = Join-Path $rootPath "SemanticModel"
$reportFolderPath = Join-Path $reportPath ".Report"
$staticResourcesPath = Join-Path $reportPath "StaticResources"
# Create the directories
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $reportFolderPath -Force
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $staticResourcesPath -Force
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $semanticModelPath -Force
# Create sample .pbi files and other platform files
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $reportFolderPath ".pbi") -Force
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $staticResourcesPath "placeholder.txt") -Force
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $reportPath "definition.pbir") -Force
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $reportPath "report.json") -Force
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $semanticModelPath ".pbi") -Force
New-Item -ItemType File -Path (Join-Path $semanticModelPath "definition") -Force
# Output success message
