    Hi. You can't get that info. The way PowerBi metadata is stored won't have that info. The thing is a Workspace is a collaborative place without an owner. So it's like a folder with users that might have different privileges. The creator can be deleted from the users and the workspace can still exists.

    You can read more about what you can do with the API in here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/

    I hope that make sense
