How display the report owner
Hello, I have a workspace here with a lot of reports, and a created a dashboard that you can select one of the reports and show data about them. I connected via dataset.
I need to display the name of the owner of each report selected, but, the parameters that i already have is:
OwnerTenantGuid
OwnerUserGuid
OwnerGroupGuid
Is there a way to do it?
Thx

There's no such thing as a report owner. A Semantic Model does have an owner - is that what you need? Usually that owner is listed on top of the web page when report users consume the reports. Otherwise you can use the audit log for the "Take over dataset" events.

lbendlin I just find out that the information I need to display isn't "owner" but "contact".
I think this is way the person who published first the report, and apparently we can change in report settings.
Anyway, is there a way to get this info (as a parameter maybe) and display in my reports?

That's a workspace contact, again nothing to do with the report.
As far as I am aware there is no API call for the workspace contact list. Best you can do is use the API call for workspace members and then list all the admins.

Is It really the same thing?
Fabricio doesn't own that workspace, he's the one who published to report to It.
I have plenty of other reports in the same workspace that have different persons as a contact, Isn't that really a parameter?
