How to get info about Power BI Workspace creator and creation date?

Hi,

 

I am wonder if there is a possibility to get info:

  • who created Power BI Workspace,
  • when the workspace has been created

preferably via PowerShell or REST Api?

 

Regards,

Karo

    Hi karo ,

     

    As far as I know, we could only know the createdDateTime by REST API.

    For reference: Admin - WorkspaceInfo PostWorkspaceInfo

     

    If you want to know who created this workspace, I suggest you to use auditing logs.

    Please make sure your account is marked as a Global Admin, within Office 365 or Azure Active Directory, or have been assigned the Power BI service administrator role.

     

    Best Regards,

      When you call the API, the createdDateTime field always returns the current time. The API output does not show the actual creation date of the workspace.

      The Rest API link shown here isn't the answer.  It only returns current date/time.
