It would be great if there was an option to tranfer ownership of created reports and dashboards. This way, work would not have to be duplicated if the original creator was to leave the company/change roles/etc.

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

This feature is a must. It doesn't make sense to recreate all Dashboards from scratch once we decide moving from trial account to licensed one!!

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

It is appaling that Microsoft isn't replying to any comments here. A promise have been made to have this in Place in over a year ago! We too have the need for this functionality I too work for a lagre Organization and when people quit so does the reports and dashboards that they left behind. UPDATE PLEASE!

Any updates on this? We really need a simple way to transfer ownership of a report

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

Hello, I'd like to put my vote in for this feature as well. As an admin I need to see what user created content is out there and be able to take ownership of it. If a great dashboard is created by a user we would like to be able to move it to a team that has the time and resources to maintain it.

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

We really need this. We're losing valueable dashboards this way.

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

Yes. It is needed. Because we will transfer the ownership other account as for first implementation is using our company account. As the dashboard created with real-time streaming, divert Azure Stream Analytics output to other account will create new dataset but all of the dashboard must be made again. If it can be use like Azure which can transfer service to other subscription, must been better. I have 80 dashboard for each machine as details, will be stress if to create back the dashboard one by one again. Vote 1 for this idea. It's post on 2015 and still support on 2017.

RE: Transfer of ownership of created dashboards

I desperately need this feature as well! We're being asked to support a dataset that we have no visibility of, due to business stakeholders going ahead and creating their own dashboard in PowerBI. This is a must.
