Helper IDatamarts ownership
Hello,
I am starting to adopt datamarts as datasources for our reporting. I have a question in regards to ownership:
As a PBI admin, can I take over the ownership of a datamart created by another analyst?
If ownership takeover is not possible, does that mean there is no way for me to change (add new tables) a datamart model created by someone else?
Is the same true for datamarts created from dataflows?
If the answers to the above are ''no'', is this something that is on a roadmap to change/ improve or shall I be getting a new generic ''developer'' license for all datamart creation activities?
Thank you,
Lena
Hi Lena85 ,
Currently, there is no feature to take ownership like Datasets in Power BI. To edit the Datamarts, you need to be the owner of it. And there is a method that can give you and your colleague Ownership: both of you need to be the Admin of the Datamarts workspace. After that, both of you can edit the Datamarts.
More details, you can read below document:

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.
