How to create a new Workspace in azure Workspace Collection without command line tools?

Hi,   I'm primarily a data analyst, not a programmer, so forgive me if I'm not familiar with how to do this. I'm trying to create a Power BI Workspace within the Azure Power BI Workspace Collection...

inoitunoit I'm not aware of any UI that will allow you to do this. There is step by step documentation on how to set this up... have you seen this?

Yes that is the guide I have followed which is the one that has at step 3. "Compile the solution." which is the thing I cannot do. It's a shame because everything up to this point - setting up databases, ETLs etc I could do really easily, then you get to this aweful step.

      Thank you! I'm assuming I just edit the file ProvisionSample.exe.config and should be good to go?

       

      What I have literally *just* finished doing is configuring a report manually, using postman to construct the requests, following this guide: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/power-bi-embedded-iframe/

       

      Good to know I'll never have to do that again! Hopefully in the future this kind of thing can be done via the UI.

       

      Thanks again.

        Great. I love the POSTMAN. :)

         

        I don't change the config. In the prompt cmd window, it asks to input the config items.
