dataset in workspace vs with report?
Hi fushan ,
No, it has no option to create cutom column in workspace.
In your case, if you want to add new column to the dataset, you need download the pbix file and upload it with the same name. Or, if you have premium capacity. you can use xmla endpoint to modify the dataset directly.

Hi Chenwu, thanks for feedback. sorry for my many questions
What is the standard/best practice in my case? Is that recommend to share the dataset from workspace? In develpment process, should we always "download" the last copy of pbix from workspace, apply change, publish it back to workspace with the exactly same name?
You said " download the pbix file and upload it with the same name..." but the pbix comes with the dataset and report itself...
1) Can I just download the dataset and "link" it back to my report in desktop?
2) Is it possible other developer applied change in dataset and cause my report failed?
