Provide the ability to restore Service workspaces to a point in time. Would help if someone accidentally deletes content, etc.

No recovery solution is a nightmare waiting to happen. - sharath49uNew Membercant believe there is no option to back up a work space.
- dslattery1New MemberThis happened (workspace emptied for unknown reason) to us today. Hard to believe that it cannot be recovered.
- FU-MSNew Membermigrated to Azure AD and lost all my licenses... Now, I have manually redo all of my reports - because I am unable to backup & restore - NO Microsoft, NO! That is not acceptable.
- philliptrostNew MemberYep, happened to me too. Using BI Desktop to publish to the BI service which held all the DB's. Attempted to connect the data source to OneDrive for business for auto refresh from the Excel Workbook. Since I'm self-taught through Lynda.com and school of hard-knocks; this was bound to happen at some point. DANG! p.s. Does anyone know of a workaround to my issue? maybe I can point the "old" dashboards" to the new data source which happens to be the EXACT same workbook?
- LluísFrequent VisitorIt's a must We are going to spend lots of days redoing the work Hear Microsoft people. It's on the roadmap ? How are you waiting ?
- jschlereth21New MemberI agree. This should happen at the workspace level where the admin can backup/download all reports (via checkbox) from the workspaces (without needing to go into each one individually). This will also greatly simplify the process when a database is migrated to a new server and updates need to be made in each/every report.
- jschlereth21New MemberSomewhat similar to: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/11140881-backup-your-report-and-dashboard-in-case-someone-a
- rick_chahalNew MemberI agree with this since other companies are going on to this service and would require this if there's problems with the system. We need solution for backup to companies on-prem or another azure storage/repository. We are starting to use powerbi and find this product a lot useful.
