Swapping between uploaded datasets in a workspace

Suppose there are two given reports in a workspace connected to a dataset each. Is there a way to swap the datasets between the reports from the PowerBI service itself without opening it on the PowerBI desktop, considering they have the exact same data model?

Hi. I don't think you can. There is a Power Bi Rest API request for updating a datasource of a dataset:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/update-datasources-in-group

However there isn't something for changing the Report dataset source. That would be only for Power Bi Desktop.

I hope that helps,
