    Power BI Data Types

    • Cloud Backup Power BI service can only protect the Power BI content in the new workspace experience. (The personal workspace is the classic workspace, which is not supported.) In addition, the Cloud Backup Power BI service now can only protect the Power BI files that can be downloaded. For the limitations on downloading a report from Power BI, refer to . The downloaded .pbix file includes both the report you're downloading and the dataset (the data on which the report is based), the same as the download .pbix file of “” download mode in Power BI. Note that the backup data can only be exported and downloaded. If a Power BI report is created using data from Dataverse, neither the report nor the data in Dataverse will be protected.

    • To use Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365 to protect the Power BI data, you can configure an app profile for the Microsoft Delegated app with the Power BI option selected. For the list of the required permissions added to the Delegated app for Power BI, refer to App Profile Authentication. If you have been using a scan profile with service account authentication for Power Platform object types, the Auto discovery scan jobs and the Cloud Backup jobs can continue using the service account authentication.

    • If you use service account authentication or the Delegated app to protect the Power BI data, the service account or the authentication user of the Delegated app must have a Power BI Pro license or Premium Per User (PPU) license, and have the Fabric Administrator role (the former Power BI admin role).

    • Before you enable the Power BI service, ensure the feature in the tenant settings has been enabled. This feature was enabled by default.

    • If you use the service account authentication to protect Power BI data or the Delegated app to scan Power BI workspaces in AOS, the Auto Discovery scan job will automatically add the service account or the authentication user of the Delegated app as the workspace admin.

    • Due to the API limitation, the backup job of Power BI can back up at most 200 workspaces per hour.
