Workaround dataflow storage location

Recently we've connected Power BI to our organizations Azure Gen2 Data Lake, through the dataflow storage tab in the Power BI Admin portal. In order to play it safe, we first connected it to our development-environment, in order to see if everything was working correctly (it is). However, now that I want to move on and connect Power BI to our production-environment, I am unable to alter the dataflow storage location. A support request to Microsoft confirms this (since it is a preview feature the option to alter storage location is still to be developed).

 

So I'm looking for a workaround; is there a way to remove all tenant/admin settings or remove Power BI from the Azure subscription completely (in order to get a clean/new Power BI environment)? We currently don't have any published dashboards/reports, so loosing data is not an issue.

@Etienne_Steens There is a method via support that you can request this. Typically it is when moving tenants, but I would imagine they could blow away your current Power BI tenant and you could start fresh. Open a support ticket, and request this and they will send you a form.
