Cannot Delete Content Pack
Yeah, that's just it... I am the publisher. When I click on the content pack it shows my name and email address as the publisher. When I click on my portrait to the right of the settings icon, it confirms that I am logged into the same account/email address. Yet, when I try to view my content packs, it tells me I do not have any. I thought maybe it's a cached icon somehow? Maybe I'm just still seeing it in my organizational library... but when I asked a co-worker to try the same process of getting data, they are still able to see it as well, and again it lists me as the publisher.
I just tried it out on my end and it seems to work just fine in terms of creating and deleting an organizational content pack. Have you tried logging out and back in to the Power BI service? Might be a cache issue or something with your browser. Also try different browsers too.
No go on this either. I signed out of Office 365 / Power BI, cleared my cache, changed from Chrome to IE 11 (and cleared my cache there also) and still am having the same issue.
One added detail, that I'm not sure will relate, is that in my original process, I had created a group for my organization, then created the Content Pack. The things I did after that involved deleting the group first and then attempting to delete the Content Pack. I'm not sure if the order of operations here is bad possibly, or if the content pack would even be associated with the deleted group at all. That said, the group was deleted just fine.
ericg Did you create the Content Pack from within the Group?
My guess is that I did create the Content Pack from within the Group. This was a couple of weeks ago, so I don't remember exactly the timing of everything I initially did. I do strangely have a dashboard under dashboards that is listed when I select "Show: My Content" but when I click on the elipsis next to it is stated to be owned by the group I created and then deleted.
In any event, I cannot find any evidence of that group existing (aside from owning one dashboard that I can still see) in either Power BI or Office 365.
