Problem when sharing reports using URL that resides in external users workspaces
- 6 years agoHi there
You can then save a copy of the report as shown in my blog post here: https://www.fourmoo.com/2019/12/11/how-to-quickly-and-easily-copy-a-report-with-a-shared-dataset-to-another-new-app-workspace-in-the-power-bi-service/ - Anonymous6 years ago
Hi GilbertQ
Thanks for your answer.
With this copy functionality we could do a trick, a little workaround, instead of direct sharing, we can create a workspace for the interested people and then copy the report there. Then an administrator will add persons to this workspace and consequently they will gain access to the report.
Many thanks.
What happens if you do this in an App Workspace and not in "My Workspace"?
I would suggest always using App Workspaces.

Hi GilbertQ
Thanks for your suggestion.
We created an app workspace as you suggested, but the problem is that the report is a copy of an app. When you copy an app, the duplicated report goes directly to your personal workspace (the copy process doesn't ask where to copy), then we don't know how to move this report from personal workspace to app workspace.
