Please introduce a global setting to Prevent Teams from creating PowerBi App Workspace automatically when creating a new Team. As the new Workspaces are detached from Teams/Groups this should be a setting to prevent the App Workspaces beeing clotted with empty Workspaces from all our Teams.

RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace

Please please please please please!! I've been waiting for this since Teams began to appear in Power BI! I've started to decouple the classic workspaces using the new tool (great by the way, but tedious) but what's the point when new Teams start popping up. I want this feature, my boss wants this feature and his boss does too.

This needs prompt action as it is causing very bad user experience.

RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace

We have been using Power BI for a while. Creating Microsoft teams is creating workspaces in Power BI ,which seems to be very bad design and there is no way to prevent this.It is causing large mess.

This is need to prioritized and addressed by Microsoft.

RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace

This is a highly important idea that needs to be implemented. It is impeding our rollout of Teams and causing confusion among users who are using Teams and Power BI.

Microsoft, I believe that you are spending too much time on the bells and whistles that look "snazzy" and not enough time on the nuts, bolts and foundational functionality that is essential to administer an enterprise level Power BI program. The current admin functionality is severely lacking.

Of course, any admin ideas do not get as many votes because there aren't as many administrators as there are users, but lack of focus in this area will eventually begin to impact the users as well as the admins. Please start paying attention to these critical features!!

RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace

Absolute clutter to see so many workspaces in power bi , what is the point of removing o365 groups and adding that same burden now in power bi through teams

RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace

Hello,
I am facing the same problem in our enterprise. We want to have governance over workspace creation and also want to use workspaces for internal charging of our Power BI cost.
Now with users undermining our governance with O365 groups created via teams we lose all governance :-(
Is there a fix for this on any roadmap?
