Can't unassign an empty workspace from a pipeline ?

Hi,

Whatever I'm doing (unassigning test or production stage, dev is empty ; trying to delete the pipeline etc...), Power BI complains about a deployment being in progress. I even tried to delete the whole content of the target production workspace but it doesn't change anything. Will try with the API but it seems defintively stuck.

Anyone saw that and knows what to do ?

Solved through a support incident. Moving the workspace to another capacity and back again fixed the wrong "NotStarted" status, allowing to edit the deployment pipeline again.

The problem is precisely that when  trying to do that I see a message such as (translated from french) :

"Another deployment is already in progress. Wait for the end and try again." Technical details are :

If looking at the pipeline state using PowerShell/REST API I see something such as below ie I see a "NotStarted" state followed by a successful deployment almost 1 month ago. I wonder if having this "NotStarted" line could be what prevent to unassign a workspace from this pipeline or to delete this pipeline. The problem is that meanwhile I can't depploy the source target somewhere else as I can't even use it in a new pipeline.

 

P.S : still new but on other pipelines I don't have a "NotStarted" line in the pipeline history.

Hi @PatriceSc ,

 

I have tested it with dev empty, however it works fine.

Please refer this link to know about how to unassign a workspace from pipeline.

Or you can try delete the pipeline directly and create a new one.
