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
Hundreds of Teams... very confusing to users looking for a specific workspace...
Implement this...
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
100% agree. This needs to be implemented yesterday!
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
PLEASE implement this - its driving me nuts!
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Having hundreds of Teams created 100s of Power BI Workspaces (most of which are empty) which is very confusing to users looking for a specific workspace.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Absolutely needs fixed. Also, the option "Leave Workspace" doesn't just remove the Workspace from PowerBI, it chucks you out of the actual Team or Group, which is not clear when you choose this option in PowerBI
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Please note, the same thing happens with Outlook groups - every outlook group automatically creates a Workspace. This makes everything incredibly messy, and trying to roll out PBI to non tech users much harder. You want users to see only the workspaces which are actually PBI workspaces!
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
About workaround mentioned Deletion of workspace from Power BI portal deletes the team from Teams as well, right?
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Since this is definitely an issue with any governance, as noted by many below, for using Power BI especially in an enterprise environment, we are using a workaround through an 'alerts' with O365 to notify when new teams are created, followed by validating and deleting any "unauthorized" work-spaces using the Power BI Admin portal.
Not pretty but necessary, looking into scripting it out based on the same 'alerts' as well.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
This should be done ASAP, very frustrating and stupid on the team and person who designed it and let it roll out.
RE: Disable or prevent Teams from autocreating App Workspace
Would be great if only workspace created in powerbi are a available restricting all groups created outside of Powerbi remit
