Workspace admins can modify the name of the workspace, the privacy level for workspace members (edit or view only), and the role of each member (admin or member). For example, once users have been added to the workspace as members, the workspace admin can revise the role of one or multiple users from members to admins so that this user(s) can add other members and contribute to the management of the workspace.

If Power BI Premium capacity has been provisioned for the organization and if the workspace administrator has been granted assignment permissions to Premium capacity, the workspace admin can assign the workspace to a Premium capacity. This action moves the content in the workspace to dedicated hardware (capacity) exclusive to the organization and enables many additional features, such as the distribution of apps to Power BI free users. Further information on the assignment of app workspaces to Power BI Premium capacity is included in Chapter 12, Administering Power BI for an Organization. The additional capabilities provided by Power BI Premium and considerations in allocating Premium capacity are included in Chapter 13, Scaling with Premium and Analysis Services.

Workspace admins also have the exclusive right to delete an app workspace and thus remove all of its content (dashboards, reports, and datasets) from the Power BI service. Additionally, workspace admins can only leave an app workspace if another user has been assigned as an admin of the workspace.

The following screenshot displays the app workspace options available to a workspace administrator:

The Edit workspace dialog, as illustrated in the following section, is exclusively available to workspace administrators. Workspace members (non-admins) with edit rights, however, can also update and unpublish apps as well as leave the app workspace.
