Create new workspace using Power BI API

Vnuuk — Thu, 21 Dec 2017 13:05:49 GMT

Hello All! I'm trying to automate some processes in my company. I'm looking for a way to create a new workspace for specific user in my organization.

I found API that allows to do that for current logged user - https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups. But I need to create workspace for specific users.

Is it possible? If so then - how I can achieve that?

@Vnuuk

I think the standard approach is

Create a target workspace(Add group).
Add user to that group(Add group user).

So in your case, create the workspace and add specific users accordingly.

Yes we can create the App Work Spaces using automate process.

In our project we had created App WorkSpaces using C# Code.

Even we can chage the connection strings through code.
