Create App from "My Workspace"?
- 8 years ago
Thank you Anonymous,
I finally got me head round it all. What I ended up doing was creating a new App workspace an left it empty. Then I published my first report from PBI Desktop (with the original dataset) into the new App workspace. Since the Dataset for the second report is the same, I then changed the source of the Dataset for my second report to that published in the new App Workspace. This then allowed me to publish the second report to the new App Workspace.
The only real nuisance (apart from spending a couple of hours this morning trying to create this App workspace via organization content packs and then importing them into the new App Workspace - but this wouldn't allow me to publish an App etc...), was that I had to create the original dashboard (which was orginally in "My Workspace") from scratch, but it only took a few minutes.So now I have the App I was looking for in the first place, although I have to ponder on if it is worth keeping all the duplicate stuff within "My Workspace"...
I must say that all this is very unintuitive. Why can't you create Apps from "My Worskpace"???
Thanks again for taking time to helping me out.
Regards,
Paul.

PaulDBrown,
App workspace is the only place where we can create/publish apps, for more details, please review the following official article.
