Capacity names are meaningless.  Depending on your tenant admin rights you can either see all workspaces, or you can see the workspaces that you are a member of.

When this API "GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups"  runs by powershell its return  4 filed 

 

id                                                         isReadOnly    isOnDedicatedCapacity   name
-- ---------- --------------------- ----
5bbca568-2881-4628-a28a-1d2245aea88c    False    False                 PowerbiAccessGroup
5e68fde1-5a6b-467b-af41-9775cc32166e      False   True                  condecouserdevt011

When  same API on "Postman" its resposd body is 


{
    "@odata.count"16,
    "value": [
        {
            "id""5bbca568-2881-4628-a28a-1d2245aea88c",
            "isReadOnly"false,
            "isOnDedicatedCapacity"false,
            "name""PowerbiAccessGroup"
        },
        {
            "id": "5e68fde1-5a6b-467b-af41-9775cc32166e",
            "isReadOnly": false,
            "isOnDedicatedCapacity": true,
            "capacityId": "D42A91A3-6A85-4290-8291-6ECFEC4BAC2B",
            "name": "condecouserdevt011"
        }
]
}
This show "Capacity Id" field  .How come ??/
How I get same response on powershell , as I run powershell on  our pipeline >>>>

Its Postman .Postman response have capacityID where as powershell show only "id  isReadOnly isOnDedicatedCapacity  name"
