Certifying Datasets, access question
Hi Anonymous ,
As mentioned in the document,before you are going to certify the dataset, the dataset owner needs to give you member permissions for the workspace where the dataset resides.
See below:
Being named someone who can certify datasets is clearly a big responsibility. When a dataset creator contacts you about certifying a dataset, that's the beginning of your vetting process. When you're satisfied that a dataset merits certification, here are your last steps.
- The dataset owner needs to give you member permissions for the workspace where the dataset resides.
- If your tenant admin has named you as someone who can certify datasets, the Certified option in the Endorsement section of Settings for the dataset is available. Select Certified.
- Select Apply.

Certified datasets make it easier for organizations to steer users toward trusted and authoritative datasets. This "stamp of approval" for a dataset can only be applied by a specific group of Power BI users as defined in a new tenant setting. Once a dataset is certified, it shows up prominently in the new dataset discovery experience, making sure report authors can effortlessly find and leverage these high-quality sources of data.
Hi Anonymous,
Certifying a dataset does NOT make it available to everyone in the organization. It's only a way to make it more discoverable in Power BI Desktop. When you connect to Power BI Datasets from PBI Desktop, the Certified and Promoted datasets will show at the top, followed by the other datasets.
Thanks nickyvv !
I was able to verify the Promoted datasets but still awating on the tenant setting change for certifying datasets.
I found that the Promoted datasets will only show up for users that are "members" of the workspace where the dataset sits. "viewers" will not be able to see the promoted datasets in their Power BI desktop.
What is the major difference in Certified and Promoted?
From what I've read so far, the only the difference is any dataset owner can promote their own dataset, whereas certifying datasets can/should only be done by your top Power BI gurus
Hi Anonymous ，
Check the reference below:
Your Power BI report creators may now have access to many different datasets, so enterprises need to guide them to the reliable, high-quality datasets. Power BI provides two ways to endorse datasets:
- Promotion: As a dataset owner, you can promote your own datasets when they're ready for wide-spread usage. Any workspace member with Write permissions can promote a dataset. There are no restrictions on who can promote a dataset. Promotion supports the collaborative spread of datasets within organizations. This article is about promoting your dataset.
- Certification: You can request certification for a promoted dataset. A select group of users defined in the Dataset Certification tenant admin setting decides which datasets to certify. See Certify datasets for details.
