When you're a report author and probably owns a lot of workspaces, you may experience the same as I do currently. When publishing content to an app-workspace I'll get a list of all my available workspaces. It would be handy to have a search box in the window where you pick the workspace to deploy your Power BI content to.

In addition, also add the premium icons to directly identify premium workspaces.

RE: Search box when publishing

It would be good if it just defaulted to the workspace that the content was previously published to.

It is rare, for me anyways, to publish content to more than one app workspace.

RE: Search box when publishing

Consider you have 100 workspaces with access rights, then publishing and scrolling through workspaces will be a very inefficient task. Quick win when solved.

I was about to suggest this and found someone already had. I have the same but our workspace names are GUID's which match the organisation in the platform we embed reports in. Finding one GUID in a long list isn't the quickest when can't even jump part the way by pressing a letter.
