Hello,
Now that Subfolders have been introduced into the Power BI service, I would like to use an API to retrieve in which subfolders those reports/semantic models can be found.
However, using the GetReportsAsAdmin API, there is no distinction between reports that are held in the 'root' of the workspace and those held in subfolders of the workspace - there is no reference to the subFolderId,
Does anyone know if this information can be extracted?
Thanks
Richard

Hi @RichMiles,
AFAIK, currently the folder seems used to help collection and arrange different group of files in the workspace.
For rest api scanning, it not worked as 'reference' that you mentioned above. Perhaps you can try to submit an idea for this requirement.
