Thanks for the reply.
We checked all the above already via API.... 
Reports were the same as the UI, Datasets were 0 as expected. 
There were a good few hundred imports and if combind with the reports they were over 1000 however it didnt seem to be that the imports were simply counted as they appeared.
We suspected the imports might be contributing to the count but we dont know how and cant find any information how.
Also there is no way for us to clear out the imports. Many of them are orphaned, ie the associated report has been deleted.
So its not adding up and we cant find any info on this.
Please advise.
Thanks

    Hi gotters​,

    Power BI's REST API intentionally does not expose a DELETE /imports endpoint because import entities are system-managed audit packages tied to workspace storage.

    What i can suggest you is to raise a Microsoft Support Ticket for Power BI Service and provide your Workspace GUID, and ask them to run a backend metadata/package cleanup on this Workspace ID.

    Alternatively, you can create a new workspace and clone your reports to new workspace, update your existing users/apps to newly created workspace and delete the old bloat-affected workspace.
