Enable Full API-Based Access Management and App Metadata Visibility in Power BI

We want to build a scalable, API-driven framework to manage data access in Power BI without manual steps. Our goal is to programmatically access: “Who has access to confidential data?”

While the Scanner API helps retrieve workspace metadata, it currently does not include apps or audience-level access, which are critical for understanding report distribution. This gap limits our ability to audit and govern access effectively.

Suggestions:

• Extend Scanner API to include apps and audience metadata
• Provide API access to user–report–audience mappings
• Align access metadata with sensitivity labels and endorsements

This would enable automated governance and support compliance needs across large organizations.
