    Hi. Sadly, there is no request like that at the Rest API. If you don't have a lot of workspace and semantic models you can check that manually. Open a workspace and go to Workspace Settings. There is a Storage setting showing the values of the sizes.

    If you have a lot workspaces, think about the highest sizes you could have and the smallest. Check the amount of semantic models at the Admin Workspace Purview Item views.. Build a measure that could let to a semantic model average size. Use that average and the amount of semantic models as reference for the Capacity estimation.

    I hope that helps,

Hi vivianecechetti ,

 

You can try pulling those details from the Fabric Capacity Metrics report. Connect to the XMLA endpoint of the workspace and use DAX Studio to extract the information from the model. Alternatively, you can add a new page to your existing metrics report, create a table visual, and export the data. Refer to the performance matrix in the first page it will help.

 

I hope it helps.

 

Thanks,
