Managing Workspaces

Host Admin Administrator

Before you can import reports into DataCentral, you need to make the relevant Power BI Workspaces available. DataCentral uses the configured Power BI Service Principal to retrieve all Workspaces it has access to, and you select which ones should be available when adding items.

In DataCentral 3.0.0, workspaces and Power BI items can be managed in the host environment as well as within individual tenants. Perform the following steps in the environment where the content should be available.

Adding a Workspace​

  1. Navigate to Administration > Power BI Items.
  2. Click the Manage Workspaces button.
  3. Select the desired Workspace from the list.
  4. Click Save.

The Workspace will now appear in the Workspace dropdown when adding a new Power BI item.

When viewing a report's details, DataCentral indicates whether its workspace uses dedicated Power BI capacity.

If a Workspace does not appear in the list, ensure the Service Principal has been granted at least Member access to it in the Power BI Service.
