In Microsoft Fabric / Power BI, when multiple reports are connected to the same semantic model, Git integration does not preserve or allow control over the default report associated with that semantic model after syncing to a new workspace. This results in unexpected behavior when downloading, modifying, and republishing semantic models—especially after pulling artifacts into a new workspace using Git integration. Scenario / Reproduction Steps A report is created in Power BI Desktop and published to the Power BI Service. This creates Report 02 test and Semantic Model 02 test. Later, another report is created directly in the Power BI Service using the same semantic model. This creates Report 01 test, also linked to the same semantic model. Both Report 01 test and Report 02 test are linked to the same semantic model in the original workspace, and everything works as expected. Git integration is enabled for the workspace, and all artifacts are pushed to a Git repository. The same artifacts are then pulled into a new workspace using Git integration. Observed Behavior (Issue) In the new workspace, the semantic model automatically selects Report 01 test as the default report. The selection appears to be based on alphabetical order, not on the original or intended default report. When the semantic model is downloaded as a PBIX, modified, and republished: The changes are reflected in Report 01 test instead of the 02 test Report. This issue does not occur in the original workspace and happens only after Git pull into a new workspace. Impact Creates confusion for Fabric admins and developers managing multiple reports per semantic model. Causes unexpected report updates, leading to potential data integrity and governance concerns. Makes Git‑based CI/CD workflows unreliable when: Multiple reports share a single semantic model Default report selection matters for downstream operations. Git integration should provide a way to explicitly define or preserve the default report associated with a semantic model, instead of automatically selecting one based on alphabetical order. Feature Request Add an option in Git integration / Fabric workspace settings to: Explicitly select or configure the default report for a semantic model or Preserve the original default report association when syncing across workspaces.
