What is the difference between Report Owner and Report Contact?

[cnxanalytics]

Why do I see the "Contact" instead of "Report Owner" in the top-center section on app.powerbi.com(Power BI service) ?

What is the difference between Contact and Report Owner?

Where can I find Report Owner information?

Hi @cnxanalytics ,

Based on my test, I think there is no specific relationship between report owner and Contact.

In power bi service, you can set Contact for each report individually in report settings:

As for Report owner, any person who have access to this dataset is the owner of report:

Hi @cnxanalytics ,

Also, you can manage roles in Access menu:

About the capabilities of these roles, you can refer: Roles in workspace
