Question

power BI datasets no longer show up in Purview scans

Peizhu S 20

We were able to scan power BI metadata (Power BI datasets, reports, dashboards, etc.) with Purview. But the Power BI datasets are no longer showing up for all recent scans. I could trace to the datasets via Power BI Report (related item) in Purview, but no schema info is available for the related datasets. Thanks!

@Peizhu S - Thanks for the question & using MS Q&A forum.

According to this documentation: Troubleshoot Power BI tenant scans | Microsoft Learn

It can take some time for schema to finish the scanning and ingestion process, depending on the size of your Power BI Tenant. Currently if you have a large PowerBI tenant, this process could take a few hours.

Below image shows the supported scenarios for Power BI scans for the Same-tenant: User's image Below image shows the supported scenarios for Power BI scans for the Cross-tenant:

If the issue persists, additionally follow these troubleshooting tips:

If delegated auth is used:

Check your key vault. Make sure there are no typos in the password.
Assign proper Power BI license to Power BI administrator user.
Validate if user is assigned to Power BI Administrator role.
If user is recently created, make sure password is reset successfully and user can successfully initiate the session.

For more information refer to this: Microsoft Power BI and Microsoft Purview work better together

Thank you Ganesh. It has been more than a week since we run the last scan and the schema for the related datasets are still empty. Meantime, we do get metadata for Power BI Report, Dashboard, etc. except Dataset, so the password and connection must be working fine.

@Peizhu S - I agree that this issue looks strange, and I wasn't able to reproduce this issue. If you have a support plan could you please file a support ticket for deeper investigation and do share the SR# with us?
