Migrating PBI from one tenant to another with shared semantic models

We are migrating to a new tenant, i have exported all the pbix files ready to import into the new tenant.  We have some PBI reports with a shared semantic model, as part of testing i imported the "parent" pbix into the new tenant but when i try and import one of the dependant pbix i get an error.  Basically says something went wrong with no details.

Has anyone done this and can provide details on how i import the dependant reports.

When  exporting there is no option to export the full dataset

Hi @SimoneOS 

 

This is because when you migrate to a new tenant, it has a new connexion string What I would suggest doing is to open up the pbix file and connect to your new semantic model once you have it available in your new tenant
