PowerBI Service - Git integration - no organisation found
Hi,
we would like to use the CI/CD approach by linking our workspaces to our AzureDevOps repos but PowerBI Service does not find any organization and error message says: "you don't have any organisations in the git provider."
When checking the official documentation, I found the following:
Select Git integration. You’re automatically signed into the Azure Repos account registered to the Azure AD user signed into the workspace.
(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/cicd/git-integration/git-get-started?tabs=commit-to-git#connect-a-workspace-to-an-azure-repo)
Is there a way of linking another AzureDevOps organisation to PowerBI where the AzureAD user only has a guest account? All AzureDevOps repos in our company are compiled in a seperate "DevOps" organisation where each individual user has a guest account.
Hi. No. For now, it's in preview, the only way of connection it's a repo at the same Tenant Azure AD for PowerBi and DevOps. Also, both the regions of the organization created at DevOps and the capacity of PowerBi must match.
I hope that helps,
Sadly no. Before this feature the good practice was "never make changes at service because you can bring them back to the repo or local". Even though you can download the pbix, that's not a solution for every scenario and doesn't feel the correct one.
The direction of the development was always from local or repo to Service.
I hope that make sense

Update: You don't need to have Fabric Tenant and DevOps in the same region anymore if you enable this setting:
Users can export items to Git repositories in other geographical locations
"The tenant admin must enable cross-geo exports if the workspace and Git repo are in two different geographical regions."

Thanks for the quick reply.
Do you see any other way to sync report changes in PowerBi to "local" PowerBI file? This feature sounded too good 🙂- ibarrau

Same 'problem' here.. we also work with guest user accounts in our customers tenant. Do you know if this GIT integration with guest users is on the roadmap by any chance?

Same problem here. Guest user account cannot see any repos, even though it has permissions for multiple projects in Azure DevOps (with project admin role).
