Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @Pratibha12 ,
I respectfully disagree with @abpgupta on this one. If a person's userid/account is deleted, then their Personal Workspace is removed. However, if they are the owner of a public workspace, that workspace will be "orphaned" and will still be available.
To get into that workspace and make yourself the owner , go to the Admin Portal, to the Workspaces, find the "orphaned" workspaces and make yourself and admin. Then you can open Power BI service and those workspaces will be in your list.
Proud to be a Datanaut!

I assumed public workspace based on original question; not Myworkspace of user. Please let me know other than that anything else is incorrect for better understanding of recovery process. Thanks!
When a user leaves an organization, their Power BI workspace will show up as Deleted in the Admin Portal, and its contents will be retained for a period of 90 days. During this period, an administrator can recover the content.
