Power BI Dataflow to Azure Data Lake Gen2 Setup
- 7 years ago
Hi,
There is a temporary issue with settings ACLs through Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer, until this is resolved, as a temporary mitigation you can try using this powershel script:https://setacls.blob.core.windows.net/scriptfolder/setacls.ps1
In order to run the script, your global tenant admin needs to have "Storage Blob Data Contributor (Preview)" role on your storage account.
Instructions on how to run this script:
1. Login as global tenant administrator into Azure portal and open PowerShell (Cloud Shell) in your browser
2. Choose Azure CLI 2.0 (type ‘az’)
3. Upload the script (there is a button for it)
4. Run the script. For example: /home/admin/setacls -storageaccountname your_alds_gen2_storage_account_nameThe script will ask you to sign in, please follow the instructions.
Thanks,
MichaelHi,
There is no more need in this workaround, please use ASE 1.6.2 which is availably for update and download.
Thanks,
Michael
- Picci7 years agoHelper IOk, just to see if I've understood correctly: I can move the ADLS2 storage to another subscription and resource group, as far as: - they are under the SAME tenant - the ADLS2 storage name remains the SAME In the future it will be possible to unlink/link storage accounts? Or to have more than one storage account to manage (and then decide from time to time which storage account to link to which Power BI Workspace)?

You understood correctly.
We're always trying to improve the experience we deliver:
1. Can share why you're looking to move a storage to a different subscription / resource-group?
2. Link/Unlink storage accounts - can you please create a new idea in Power BI community? explaining why do you need this functionality / how you expect it to behave?
3. Multiple storage accounts - can you please create a new (separate) idea in Power BI community? explaining why do you need this functionality / how you expect it to behave?
You can add new Power BI Ideas here: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas
Please share links to these ideas once created so others can add their voice as well !

Hi yehong,
I'm looking to move the ADLS2 used by Power BI Dataflows to a different subscription / resource-group because at the beginning I used for testing purpose my Visual Studio MPN Subscription, but now I want to move the ADLS2 to a pay-as-you-go subscription within the same tenant.
As you suggested, I've just created two new Power BI ideas
...waiting for your comments, suggestions and hopefully votes! ;-)
