Hide Empty Workspace in Power BI Service

[abpgupta]

Hi All,

Is the setting available for removing "Empty Workspace" yet as per this annoucement?

Thanks!

Also waiting for this option- hide/delete from worksapces list. Already blocked creation of new classic workspaces- but not working as described in whitepaper- empty ones still visiable

Thanks for the info!

BR,

Hi, @abpgupta 

According to the Power BI Admin roadmap update in December, they said that we can just enable the “block classic workspace creation” option in the admin portal to achieve this function, and they don’t plan to provide a dedicated option for this function. You can check this picture:

Therefore, I also go to the admin portal to enable the “block classic workspace creation” option and do some test. Then I found that I can’t find the empty classic workspaces that are appeared came along with the creation of the office 365 group after I’ve enabled the “block classic workspace creation” option.

The blog of “Announcing Power BI Admins can upgrade classic workspaces and roadmap update”

In my case, even though it was enabled in admin portal, previously created Classic Workspace are still appearing in list. Is there manual way to remove such old classic workspaces from Service?
