Can't delete published link
Hi
I know there are a few posts in the forum about this but I got no solution from them. Yes I test-published a report to the web and now I want to delete it using "Manage embedded code". However the messages says "You don't have any embedded code". This is strange because firstly the publishing process went through and the link is created, and secondly I can apparently view the report in the web link created.
I tried looking around in different workspaces that I can access but just wasn't able to find it. Could you help please?
Thanks

So, you need to be in the Workspace in the Service where you created the publish to web embed code. Click gear icon and then Manage embed codes. Click the ellipses (...) next to the embed code and choose Delete.
As said in my post I did do that but can't find any.
- Hi there
Chat to your Power BI Admin, they will have the access to go into the Tenant settings and be able to delete the published link.
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/the-publish-to-web-default-is-changing-and-it-affects-who-can-create-public-embed-codes/But I did just publish it without being prompted to obtain admin's permission.
In passing, the new change only applies to organisation users but not to private users, right?
- If you published a Publish to Web link, anyone with the link can see it (zero security other than obscurity)
