Moving permissions from One Account to Another

Hi there

 

I am the owner of all the Power BI reports and have published them to the premium workspaces under my usual log in. However I have just been informed that they are changing my account details and will be using priviledged accounts and not standard user accounts, therefore my credentials are changing. . 

 

I tested this new account and logged in to PBI with it and as expected no reports/dashboard were showing.

 

My question is - is there an easy way to migrate / change ownership of reports on PowerBI. So go from my old one to my new one. Or do I have to republish

 

Many thanks

 

Kind regards

 

Karen

  • KarenFingerhut : Did they create a new account for you ? or did they just upgrade your privileges with same ID?, if they have created a new account (as well as login), all you need to do are as follows

     

    - Add your new ID to workspace as owner/admin

    -Share all the reports you have published to the new ID

     

    you should be able to see the reports and manage them without any issues.
