Power BI - Administration Function?

[irnm8dn]

Looking for suggestion on a way that allows me to see an invetory of dashboards, and those permitted to access them.

The goal is to better administrate the distribution and consistency in dashboard/report availability.

Thanks - appreciate all the feedback.

Hi @irnm8dn,

In Power BI desktop, the report and dataset use your local computer momery. You can check each .pbix file size.

In Power BI desktop, you can see storege of all datasets( by yourself or owned by others, and corresponding reports and dashboards) by clicking the setting->Manage personal storage.



Click Settings->Admin Portal, which is accessible to all users who are Global Admins in Office 365 or have been assigned the Power BI service administrator role.

Best Regards,
Angelia

There is a REST API available to access metadata of dashboards, reports, and datasets. You can use this API from custom application to manage Power BI resources. For more information see the documentation here: http://docs.powerbi.apiary.io/#.
