Cross Report Drill Through not Working for Users

I set up a cross report drill through that works for me but not for users.  The two PBI reports are in the same work space.

I found this note from the Microsoft site:

"You can't use cross-report drill through with individually-shared "Shared with me reports". To use cross-report drill through, you must access reports in workspaces that you're a member of."

Both reports are published to the same work space.  I'm not aware of any other way to share reports than this:

Hi @clarkpaul ,

 

Do you have access to the workspace of the report?

Check the document.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-cross-report-drill-through 

It says:

You can't use cross-report drill through with individually-shared Shared with me reports. To use cross-report drill through, you must access reports in workspaces that you’re a member of.

I'm unable to create a workspace since that feature is disabled by our tenant admin.  So, I'm unable to use the cross report drill through feature.  Thanks

So what is the workaround to let end-users have access to Cross-Report Drill Through?  It's a cool feature but I'm having users test and they can't see it due to restrictions listed here.  We have hundreds of users that use reports but only 4 admin/developers are part of the workspace.
