App Workspace

[Anonymous]

A good portion of my dashbopards and reports have been created in "My Workspace".  I am now at a point where I want to package this content and distribute it through an App.

Is there a way to move these reports and dashboards to an alternative workspace so that I can publish and App?  (My Worksapce does not allow for App creation.)

Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

In addition, here is a similar thread in which some workarounds are mentioned. Could you go to check if it helps in your scenario? 

There is a trick that I've found:

1. You first create a "Content Pack" from My Workspace that includes your Dashboard (it's in the up-most "Settings" menu").

And you make it available to the Group/s of your choice.

2. You go to another Group and Settings- --> View Content Pack and select it.

3. That's it - you see the Dashboard in another group. It's like a "view/pointer" to the original one.

4. Furthermore - if you like, you can right-click it and select "Copy" (Yes, now you can see this option) - and it'll create a copy (not a pointer) of it in that Group.

Here's what I just did:

from My Workspace, file > download report (preview).

This downloaded a PBIX file to my PC.

Opened it in Power BI Desktop, hit publish.

Chose my group's workgroup.

Hi @Anonymous,

You will have to publish your pbix files again to the new App Workspace and then create Dashboards.

There is no way as of now to simply move them.
