Reports - Clone Report In Group
Clones the specified report from the specified workspace.
- If the dataset for a cloned report resides in two different workspaces or in My workspace, then a shared dataset will be created in the report's workspace.
- When cloned, reports with a live connection will lose that connection and instead have a direct binding to the target dataset.
Permissions
The user must have all of the following, unless a requirement doesn't apply:
- Write permission on the specified report.
- Build permission on the target dataset, required if the
targetModelId
parameter is used.
This API call can be called by a service principal profile. For more information see: Service principal profiles in Power BI Embedded.
