Error message when releasing workspaces - 404
- 3 years ago
Hello,
the problem was that there was also a group with the same name.
Thanks for the help.
Hi collinq,
I would like to add someone using their email address.
However, the problem could be that this user does not have permission to create workspaces. Maybe that is why it is not possible to make him an administrator of an existing workspace.
However, this could also be stated in the error message.
Hey Niemeyer ,
I don't think that the person has to have certain permissions in the entire tenant to be an admin of any given workspace. "Initially, the content administrator / workspace creator is the only user that has a permission of Admin. However, others can be added." And, you can "Add security groups, distribution lists, Microsoft 365 groups, or individuals to these workspaces as admins, members, contributors, or viewers." (Give users access to workspaces - Power BI | Microsoft Learn)
So, if you are the owner, is there something unique about that email address - as in, is this an internal email? external? Are you typing it in or pulling it down from AD? Can they currently sign into app.powerbi.com and see any other workspaces?
