    Hi rickymcmaster 

     

    There are any option that I can think of is to use git integration and get. the PBIX file into source control and doing it that way you would get the data set and the report. What you could then do is get the pbip file and open that in Power BI desktop which will allow you to then get the report.

Hi rickymcmaster 

 

The only workaround is to download the reports and then open it up in Power BI desktop and connect it to the new source.

    Thanks GilbertQ , I edited my question to make it a bit clearer.  The original report was based on a semantic model in another workspace.  When I created it I (obviously) did not realise this was a limitation.

    Hi, how can i change the semantic model in the Power BI Desktop? I have tried "Transform data" and "Data source settings", but in the Data source i don't see a semantic model, but instead it gives me the connection to the Azure Data Explorer. thanks!
