How to copy semantic model across tenants?

Hello,

Can I use rest api or similar approach to copy semantic model across tenants?

Best,
Jacek

You cannot directly copy a Power BI semantic model across tenants using REST API. The best options are to manually export the PBIX file and publish it to the new tenant, use third-party migration tools, or leverage cross-tenant dataset sharing for access without copying.

@jaryszek There is no export option for datasets/semantic models in the Power BI REST API that I am aware of. There are some third-party tools that can help facilitate this.
