Hi @Anonymous ,
When you use the Backup and Restore feature with Power BI datasets, your backups are stored in an Azure Data Lake Gen2 (ADLS Gen2) storage account. This storage account is registered at the tenant or workspace level to facilitate dataflow storage and operations. Backup files are placed into the backup folder in the containerpower-bi-backup.
As for the retention period, there’s no specific duration mentioned in the Power BI documentation. The retention period might depend on your organization’s data retention policies and the settings of your Azure Data Lake Storage. It’s a good practice to check with your organization’s IT department or Azure administrator for specific retention policies.
Remember, it’s always a good idea to backup Power BI datasets on a regular basis for more reasons than simply being able to restore a dataset within a given timeframe after a loss or corruption.
