HI Anonymous ,

I'd like to suggest you to remove old version report(workspace 2) before your copy update report, it seems like power bi not allow you to do replace operation on contents which published as app.

In addition, did this issue appears if you direct publish to workspace 2?

    Ive should have mentioned that my report's dataset is build on a master report from workspace 1, so its not possible to publish my report to workspace 2. 

    It doesnt not allow my to replace it and thats fine but the problem is that when I delete my report in workspace 2 (first picture) and try to copy my report from workspace 1 to 2, it says theres already a report with that name (second picture) AND app from workspace 2 still has the report although I deleted it.

      Anonymous  Is it a bug in the copy-function or simply a problem without a solution?

      Thanks,

        HI Anonymous ,

        In fact, I can't reproduce this. I refer to your steps and test on two workspaces, it works well without any issues.

        Anything particular in your report? Can you please share more details about your report? (e.g. datasource type, connection mode, security settings...)

        Regards,
