Deleted Scorecard keeps refreshing
- 4 years ago
Seems the problem was solved on Microsoft side and it just stopped by itself
Hi ginskr! Be sure you have deleted the dataset of the scorecard. When you create Metrics two contents are created. One it's the scorecard with goals and another one is the dataset. E.g.
You must delete the dataset in order to completely remove it. Otherwise it will continue refreshing a model without the Metrics.
I hope that helps,
Hi ibarrau, yep I deleted the dataset as well, but that doesn not help. I see someone else has the same problem too: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Deleted-Scorecard-still-sending-failed-refresh-emails-nonstop/idi-p/2690054
which means it can only be a bug

Ok that's weird. Maybe you can try navigating the tenant. I'm thinking that if it's really there. The API should shown it. You probably can use cmdlets with powershell or any other language code requesting the Power Bi Rest API.
There are requests about scorecards: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/scorecards_(preview)
You might be able to "get" them and check if it's there. If you can find it, there is also a "delete" request to remove it.
I hope that helps as alternative

thanks ibarrau, that's actually pretty good idea. Sadly no luck...that is completely weird because the scorecard link is pointing to a workspace which does not exist either in my organization ( i looked through our whole metadata database), nor the other api to delete a scorecard worked.

There is still hope, but this time it's a little bit more complex because you need admin permission. Workspaces are not "really" deleted. It's like a logic delete. So you can actually bring them back with admin permissions.
Check this request out
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/admin/groups-restore-deleted-group-as-adminThat might help in order to check if it still has the scorecard in there.
I hope that helps,
