When publishing reports from power bi desktop it publishes a dataset for each of those reports naming them what that report is called rather than what the gateway is called. We would want it so if several reports are using the same enterprise gateway- they would all use that particular dataset rather than create a nother one. This makes the datasets confusing and a little difficult to find. If i produce 5 reports based on one tabular model- there should only be one dataset as they are all connecting to the same gateway?

RE: clean up datasets- only one dataset for the same connection
This post should have more votes. The management of datasets and their relationships to reports is seriously lacking in Power BI.
