AI summary

The Power BI connector inventories your Power BI workspaces, reports, dashboards, datasets, and other objects, identifying governance issues through policies that flag external sharing risks, unused content, and missing administrators. You can view consumption reports, run automated actions to manage workspace membership, and use predefined filters to organize your inventory.

The Power BI connector brings Power BI into Rencore Governance. It inventories workspaces, reports, dashboards, datasets, dataflows, datamarts, apps, capacities, pipelines, activity events and artifacts published to the web.
