prerequisites for Tenant migration in Power BI
- 1 year ago
Hello YashikaAgrawal,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community.If you don’t have access to a report, the REST API will not let you download it. The APIs enforce the same security model as the UI.
To address this, you have a few options:
- Use a Power BI Service Administrator account this can list all workspaces and reports.
- Take over workspaces in the Power BI Admin Portal. Once you take over, you become the admin and can assign yourself access to all contents.
- Verify that Download .pbix is enabled for reports. If this setting is off, even Admins cannot export the report file.
- Coordinate with the report owners to grant you access or enable downloads.
Thanks you, lbendlin & mohitkumawat for sharing valuable insights.

Hi YashikaAgrawal ,
Export Inventory of all assets before migration (reports, datasets, dashboards, dataflows, etc.)
Use tools like Power BI Scanner API, PowerShell scripts
Recreate deployment pipelines in Tenant B (Dev → Test → Prod)(if applicable)

Thank you for reply..
I would be using REST APIs for download,.
1 doubt, If there are 10 reports, and 1 report i dont have access or if there is any issue in that, via REST API, 1 report is not getting downloaded.
Is there any way to download the report which i dont have access?
