All my existing dashboards were created via importing data from a SSAS MDX cube into a .pbix file, then creating the model, measures, and report and publishing them to PBI Service. So I do have the .pbix files that I can republish into the service under the app workspace. That's not too bad. It is a little inconvenient, especially since those dashboards are set to auto-refresh via an enterprise gateway. So the .pbix files are a bit stale and will need to be updated.
But the huge rub I would say is in the dashboards. Recreating the dashboards can take a lot of time, depending on the detail of your dashboard. For our organization, we have three major product categories, so our dashboards have metrics addressing all three. So it's just a lot of stuff to repin. Further, and maybe this isn't best practice, but there are several graphics that I place on dashboards that I don't replicate on the report. For example dial guages. I feel like those are great for a dashboard, but for a report you probably want a little more precision and/or more real estate in order to present new/different infomation from the dashboard.
So bottom line, I am hoping there is a way to simply move the report/dataset/dashboard from one workspace to another. In this case from "my workspace" into an app workspace.
