Locate Workspace from App

Hi,

 

I am looking to track down a Workspace, I know the name of the App, but the previous owner of the Workspace it was published from has left the company and I don't have access to either the App or Workspace. I do have the Power BI Admin role and so I can see the App in the Workspaces section of the Power BI Admin portal along with its associated datasets \ reports. It seems like it should be a simple task to track back from the App to the Workspace to assign myself as the administrator (and I'm sure it is), but i can't seem to find a simple way to do this, any help would be much appreciated!

 

Thanks, 

Dale.

    Hi dalebidwell ,

     

    If you go to the app, and select the elipses in the top bar, are you able to see the "Related Content"  Or, see the "Open Lineage View " view?

     

    Or, if you select the app and select "Edit App" in the top right corner that will take you to the details as well.

      Thanks for the help Collin - I don't personally have access to the App either as its secured with an AAD group (but can see that works on other Apps, I will try and find an existing user who can check it for me), I was just thinking if this happened in future and both the Workspace and App were not accessable, how would it be done?
