Determine Personal Workspace Owner within Impact Analysis

I have a dataset where users have permissions to build reports using that dataset. Using the Impact Analysis pane within the Lineage View, I can see that I have 1 report built using that dataset within my workspace/app and 11 other users have reports built using that dataset within their personal workspaces.

 

How can I determine the owner of the those personal workspaces?

 

Prior to the Impact Analysis pane, there was a pane called "View Related" (if memory serves). Within that pane, a dataset owner would be notified of users who have built reports using that dataset within their personal workspaces. And, if I hovered over the icon that proivided that notification, the users email address would appear in a tooltip. However, that functionality appears to be gone.

    Hi， NickTrent32 

     Lineage View In new look :

    Lineage View in old look:

     

    And if  you are a powerbi administrator ，you can  check  the owner of the those workspaces here.

    Admin portal->workspace

      v-easonf-msft I am not a Power BI admin. That function is limited in my organization to just a select few. In the new look, is there any other are where I can see who is the owner of those personal workspaces?

       

      However, as a work around, I did just switch to the old look and I was able to hover over the dashboards and workspaces to get the users email in the tool tip. See beow.

        Hi , NickTrent32 

        After my test ,I find  it just show the related workspace name  and i counld't see  any users email in the tool tip.

        Please recheck it . Most likely it was just that the workspace contained the user's email when it was named.

         

        As of now, I can't think of any other way except that the administrator can search the workspace name  to find the workspace owner through the  workspace  in admin portal.

         

        I hope someone can provide a better way.
