    Hi mwaters4, 

     

    I would check with your Active Directory team and ask them to double-check the AAD syncs. In my case it turned out to be an issue where an OU was not being synced.

Hi BSLATTER ,

 

I should be able to add this security group as a member to my workspace (the new app workspace in PowerBI). I do not see it however. Is there any other constraints I should be keeping in mind?

Could you post an screenshot here? Were you able to type into security group? Did you get any error message?

 

Regards,

Yuliana Gu

What would you like a screenshot of? When I try typing in a Security AD group (any) none of them are populating in a new App Workspace, or in the old way workspace method.

 

I just get an error that this isn't a valid email if I try to tab it in anyways.

      I seem to be having the same problem... just created a new workspace and cannot add a security group nor office 365 group to the ACCESS list for the new workspace... Anyone have a resolution?

       

      Thanks
