Migrating a semantic model from the tenant of one organization to the tenant of another

[Jhamed]

Greetings,
I am currently in the process of acquiring a dataset and reports from an organization.  Does anyone know if possible how to migrate the semantic model from the tenant of one organization to the tenant of another organization?

Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated...thanks!

Hi  @Jhamed ,

As aj1973 mentioned above .There is no direct method to migrate Power BI Service content to different tenant unless you download .pbix file from power bi service, re-publish them to a new tenant Power BI Service and re-configure gateways for them if needed.

If you have a very large list of reports or tenants to manage, you can use PowerShell or the PowerBI REST API for automation, but it might be very complex, see TenantManagement/README.md at main · PowerBiDevCamp/TenantManagement · GitHub

A workaround is to invite users to your tenant as guest users with appropriate permissions, and you can add them to the same group for easy management.

Distribute content to external guest users with Microsoft Entra B2B - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

About Microsoft 365 migration, perhaps you can refer this blog:

Hi @Jhamed 

Simply download the pbix file from one Tenant and publish it to the other tenant.
