Workspace hierarchy (nested workspaces)?

Question

Hi all,&nbsp;I'm currently frustrated at the lack of organizational flexibility with the current Power BI Service Workspace functionality.&nbsp;I would dearly love to create a broad top-level workspace ("Finance"), and then create multiple sub-workspaces within it ("Purchasing", "Accounting", "Billing").&nbsp; It would make a whole ton of sense for the hierarchy to propagate permissions to children, in the same way that Windows folder permissions have worked for decades now.&nbsp;Why is this not a thing yet?

Hey ctmullins ,This is a good idea and I am sure the PBI dev team will come up with something like this sooner or later. If you want to speed up the process you can vote for this idea here:https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=da1e4e4c-eb11-eb11-8441-501ac524afb0

Thank you&nbsp;Migasuke&nbsp;- I have upvoted that idea.&nbsp;Any other input, perhaps from someone within Microsoft who might have some definitive information?&nbsp; I really can't believe that this wasn't baked into the product from the get-go....
