We just found that you can not delete a copied/shared dataset from a workspace after copying the report from original workspace to new workspace. The only options are to Analyze in Excel and Quick Insights. If you need to delete copied reports and datasets form a workspace that are no longer needed, there is no way to accomplish this. Please add the ability to delete copied/shared dataset.

RE: Can Not Delete a Shared/Copied Dataset From Workspace

This is incredibly important and seems like an oversight from the Power BI Services team. We must be able to remove data-sets as it can cause pretty significant problems for security, versioning and messiness of work-spaces to be unable to delete a shared data-set!
