Contributor role is able to manage dataset access while it should not. Is it a BUG?

As per documents (provided by Microsoft) the workspace contributor should not be able to manage workspace as well as dataset permission. Only admin and member has the permission to manage workspace and dataset.

 

But as I have tested, I observed that a contributor cannot manage workspace permission but can manage dataset permission.

 

Is this a bug?

Hi  @Sonal_Verma ,

 

Users that have at least a Contributor role in a workspace have Build permission on the datasets in that workspace, as well as permission to copy reports in that workspace.

For datasets in the original workspace, if you have at least the Contributor role, you automatically have Build permission through your workspace role.

For more information about roles in workspaces, see Roles in workspaces in Power BI.
