PowerShell: Get-PowerBIWorkspace - Users-property is empty

I run the folling code:

Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount -Credential $cred

#($cred contains a user with "Administrator" priviliges in the workspace)

 

$ws = Get-PowerBIWorkspace | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq "[My Workspace name here]"

#$ws contains a valid object referring to the desired workspace

 

$ws.Users    #THIS IS NULL / EMPTY

 

I've tried several optins, but I could not get the users of the workspace.

Modul-Version is 1.0.946.

 

How can I query all users having permissions to the workspace ?

Hi @Tom-CK ,

 

Try this command.

Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount -Tenant [TenantId] -ServicePrincipal -Credential (Get-Credential)

Tried this with correct parameters - does not work.
I always get a "WriteError"-Exception.
