Impactful IndividualWARNING (Resolved): Power BI & Microsoft Planner integration can DELETE your Workspaces
FYI. Microsoft has informed me that the problem has now been rectified. It took a lot of complaining from me trying to justify the issue, and it was nice to get a personal thank you from them in the end :)
I checked and it has definitely been rectified.
Previously, if you deleted a plan, you actually deleted an entire organisational workgroup/workspace. Now, you only 'Leave' the plan and the workgroup remains intact.

You can enter your concern in the Planner’s Feedback Forum. I’ll also report you concern about this integration.
Based on my testing, if user is not admin of this group, user will not have the permission to edit/delete the group. You can assign permissions properly and inform the group admins about this important thing.

Impactful IndividualWhat you said is true. Only Admin's for a workspace can delete them.
The problem is that within a large organisation, you cannot control who is assigned as an Admin to a workspace. You can have as many admins as you like for a workspace.
We could certainly have a 'policy' telling people to be careful... but a policy will not prevent a lack of awareness. Microsoft still needs to fix the issue.

Can you tell me how did you connect MS Planner with Power BI? I am struggling to get an answer to this

It is currently not possible to do this directly in Power BI.
It may be possible to do it with Powerapps & Flow, and then pass the data into Power BI.
