Grant access to Workspace without granting access to Teams Channel

Is there a way that I can add users to an exisiting Power BI workspace, but restrict their access to the corresponding MS Teams Channel?

Hi @accortdr

 

To limit the access in a workspace ,you may refer to the document below:

Hi @accortdr ,

 

I don't think there is any way to include to deafult workspace and keep out of teams channel. You should probably create a new workspace and provide access.

 

Give a thumbs up if this post helped you in any way and mark this post as solution if it solved your query !!!

Unfortunately, the situation dictates that we have to use the existing workspace in Power BI, we just want to grant access to contractors to help with dev without also adding them to the Teams Channel. 

Create a better situation.

Create a new workspace through the Tenant admin, not through Teams. Teams workspaces are evil.  (They are classic by default too, which adds insult to injury)
