New Workspace Help
- 4 months ago
In case you can't change anything, the solution would be the one I have said at the end. You need to code your copy report from one workspace to another. The first time might take time, but the second should just be changing the workspace id and run it.
I guess the effort of just publish the report to a new workspace and duplicate the pbix is not that much as coding a script for running that copy.
I hope that helps,
Thanks for your reply, unfortunately a lot of that has gone way over my head.
My system has worked for several years, I inherited 2 PowerBI reports that are connected to a live Dynamics 365 system and I figured the only way of preserving (keeping a snapshot) of the stats & figures at Year End was to create a new Workspace for the new year and publish those pbix files into them (after making some changes to measures and page filters etc).
Once that is done, the old workspace is disconnected, by that I mean the scheduled refreshes are turned off for good, this way anyone can go into 2022 & beyond and take a look at the historial snapshot figures.
The only reason why I posted this question today was to see if I could just duplicate the Workspace and its contents but it looks like I can't.
At the moment it isn't broke so there is nothing to fix but we may need a developer to come in sometime to help with doing things as best practice going forwards.

Thank you, I will look at doing this when we can get someone in to do the coding.
