    Hi Zabeer ,

     

    If your reports are in a new workspace, and you have Build permission for the dataset A. Then you can make a copy of them and save them to different workspaces.

     

    First, make sure your tenant has enabled the option"Use datasets across workspaces". 

     

    Then copy the report to another workspace. This will not generate another dataset A.

     

     

     

    Copy reports from other workspaces -- Microsoft 

     

    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

    Best Regards,
