Power Bi report Access
Hello,
A user created a report called C&M Dashboard V3 in power bi which everyone in the C&M team had access to. However, since the user has left the business we can no longer access this report. I would like to know how I can grant access to the report.
kind regards,
Anees

Hi. First you should check if the report was created inside of a Workspace or if it was created at their personal "My Workspace".
Workspaces are collaborative spaces that can be used by several people. If that's the case there might be a way to recover it. However, "My Workspace" is a personal place to publish things that can only share with read permission to other people. That place only exists while the accunt is active. If you delete the office account then the space will be deleted.
Be sure to check that.
You should always keep the developments (pbix files) in a repository to avoid this situations.
I hope that helps,
ibarrau I can see the user account is deleted in office 365.
Do I need to restore the user account to access the personal workspace
Are you sure there is no workspace created for that? usually when there is they give access to the workspace, when there is not, you usually check the report from "Share with me" menu.
You should try that. I'm not sure if bringing the accoun back will bring back the report 😞
I hope so.
