Determine if Dataset is Used in Other Workspaces

I have recently taken over as admin of Power BI and have found there were a few very important datasets kept in a personal workspace which was given premium capacity so other people can access the reports and datasets. I have been told other reports are connecting to the datasets and I need to figure out which ones. The data lineage only shows reports within the personal workspace, but is there a way for me to see what reports from other workspaces are using the dataset(s)?

  • Hi SBIM 

     

    That makes sense because right now only the individual user can see reports in their "My Workspace" as far as I know as it stands today you cannot see the report names.

     

    I do recall there being some updates coming soon to help fix this for Power BI Admins.

  • FYI I looked at impact analysis and it says there are 39 reports across 7 workspaces, but all workspaces are personal so I can't see what they are or the names of the reports.
