Office 365 groups creating Classing Workspaces (Groups) in Power BI Service
Hi DebbieE ,
Yes. Actually there already be one topic about preventing create classic workspace automatically when create Office 365 group as mentioned in my previous post. If the number of votes reaches a certain number, the relevant team will develop this feature so that this feature may be implemented in the near future. You can vote here and add comments to speed up the process. Thank you.

Hi DebbieE ,
When you create Office 365 group in Office 365, a classic workspace will be created automatically. Similarly, it will also automatically create a associated Office 365 group in Office 365 when you create a classic workspace in Power BI Service. And when you delete the classic workspace (as an Admin) in Power BI Service, the associated 0365 group also be deleted. Vice versa(delete 0365 group will also delete the related classic workspace).This is the current situation. . . Therefore, the official recommendation is to use the new experience workspace which will not automatically create a 0365 group. But it allows you to link OneDrive folders to the workspace, you just have to do it explicitly.
There is one topic about preventing teams from autocreating App Workspace shared on Power BI Ideas, you can vote it up and add your comments there to improve Power BI on this feature .
In addition, when create new group in Office 365, please try the method in this link and check whether it can prevent to create classic workspace in Power BI Service.

these seem to all be in regards to ensuring an Office 365 group isnt created when you create a Classic Workspace.
We are fine with this because we only ever create New Workspaces.
My issue is still in regards to not wanting a classic workspace created everytime someone creates an Office 365 group
