I need to take the ownership of a datamart. How to do it? My former colleague has left the company and he is the owner of the Datamart. Now the refresh is failing as his account is deactivated. I cannot fix the error and refresh it without taking the ownership. I am one of the workspace Admin but still could not find a way to take the ownership of the DataMart. Thanks In Advance!

Hi @alen_rl ,
If your workspace is Fabric capacity, you can try to convert this workspace to PPU or Premium capacity in Workspace settings, because in the test, Fabric capacity does not support Take over.
If this workspace contains Fabric content, you need to move the datamart to another PPU or Premium capacity workspace.

@Anonymous Can the Power BI Admin, do something about it? In Admin Portal, as my former colleague has left the company and none of us can access it?
Hi @alen_rl ,
Whether you are a Fabric capacity, this capacity does not support Take over, Premium and PPU capacity support Take over.

Hi @Anonymous ,
I do not have the option to take the ownership. I am one of the Workspace Admin. Do you know what permission am I missing?
