Hi, @ForgotID 

 

To access your dataset from another workspace, you have two options:

 

You can use the Build permission feature to grant access to specific users or groups who can build new content on your dataset. This way, they can connect to your dataset from their own workspaces and create reports based on it.

You can copy your report and dataset to another workspace using the REST API and Power Shell. This is a more advanced option that requires some coding skills and admin rights.

Hi.

From your description it is not clear, at what point you are receiving problems. First, If you want to use the dataset in a report, create a live connection in PowerBI Desktop. Then you can publish this report in any workspace you want.

However, make sure your user has got at least build permissions on the datasets.
