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
Same issue here and agree with Kieeran Steel's point below. It bypasses the governance structure we have in constraining the creation of workspaces, by letting classic ones pop up with admin and non-admin members.
This is currently causing issues for an enterprise Power BI roll-out to hundreds users in my workplace. We want to have control over what workspaces are created, and what access users have to those workspaces in order to enforce data governance.

Microsoft, can you add these votes to https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/19432663-hide-non-power-bi-workspaces-from-left-menu - as it is the same problem but with 2 ideas which make them have less votes.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
"Clotted"...good word. "Crapped up," I'd use. Another MS "Ribbon" decision.
Teams is clunky, broken garbage adopted by clueless but ruthless C-suite turds and configured as no-delete/no-correct/always-recording corporate spyware.
Teams is the childish AOL portal to your carefully crafted Power BI reports, framing them in an ugly, unavoidable one-inch border, full-screen zoom disabled.

With no other way to organize data extra workspaces clutter organization.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Is there any feedback from Microsoft on this issue? Also, I think someone mentioned that if you delete the workspace in PBI, it would delete the team in MS Teams. That's not the case. I just deleted a workspace and the team is still there in MS Teams. It is definitely annoying to have to go through that process every time a team is added in Teams.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
It's hard to determine and sort through legitimate Power BI application workspaces and Teams-created workspaces that will never be used in Power BI. We have over 50 legitimate workspaces already and are now seeing Teams workspaces clutter our tenant. This is a terrible experience for our administrators.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Microsoft, not every Teams group needs a Power BI workspace. It really clutters up Power BI when one is created for each Teams group. Users then must sort through a bunch of workspaces to access the ones that are actually useful. If you think this isn't that big of an issue, then you overestimate the capabilities of the typical users. For my company which is just starting to use Power BI, careless design like this significantly hampers user adoption and negates my ability to sell Power BI to my senior executives (who are still unsure if they want Power BI).
Also, it’s careless design to not explicitly warn the user that by deleting a Power BI workspace they are also delete the Teams group. Right now the warning message is rather uninformative.

This doesn't happen for me, When I create a new Teams site, I get an O365 Group, but not a Power BI Workspace.
