Uses in "Members can edit content" workspace cannot see dataset

[Polly]

Hey,

I wonder if can one can help. I have create a dataset that I want to share with individuals so that they can create their own reports on PowerBI Service. I am under the impression that to do this I will need to share it in a  Content Pack.

To test I have published the dataset from PBI desktop onto my own Workspace on PBI service, I have then created a new content pack and given access to bidept group (who's Workspace is set to "Members can edit content) when I click go on this, I get a notification that is has been sucessful.

When I go into the Data set in my workspace I can see that the BIdept group now has permission to access this data set.

However, when I go into the BIdept workspace and then get data > My organization  the content pact with the data set is not avalible to be selected.

Does anyone have any idea to how I am going wrong?

Thanks!

Polly

Hi

Is your dataset  a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) data source?

Hey Maggie,

Hi there, do the users have Power BI Pro licenses?

I am not sure why they cannot see the content.

Also are they Members of the App Workspace or Admins?

[Polly]

Hi,

Yes all have pro licences. There are two people in this group, one as a memeber with edit permissions and the other is me who is admin.

It's odd as it says it has been sucessful and shared but just isn't there to select

[GilbertQ]

Possibly change one person to Admin and see what happens?

I've switched web browers and it works fine, seems only to be an issue with Crome

Hi there,

Could you possibly create a new app workspace, and then add the BIDept group to this workspace?
and then see if the can access it via the Power BI Service dataset

Hey Gilbert,

thanks you for your response, however, the BIDept group is already in an app workspace

[GilbertQ]

Has the BiDept beed added to the content pack?

[Polly]
