Hi All,
I am trying to delete a Power BI report sourced from a live connection to a PowerBI dataset from the service workspace. However, the report is not being deleted. Every time delete is done the report is removed from the list but when refreshing the workspace files it shows up again. Have tried deleting multiple times and the report still keeps showing in the workspace.
Have anyone come across a similar issue or have a resolution for the same, please let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Please check if the dataset has been placed into a content pack and be shared with other users. I find a related post, please check if it helps, https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/cannot-delete-dataset-and-reports-in-workspace/idi-p/1756250

Hi @v-xiaotang, the report is built on an existing Power BI dataset in a different workspace. The issue is occuring when trying to delete only the report.
Not able to reproduce that behavior, and we can't collect your log or other information to investigate it further. You can go to this link and create a support ticket there, experts there will help you.
