Automating Power BI Viewer Role Assignment After Azure Purview Approval
- May 08, 2025
Agree current functionality is quite useless. Will not go live towards end-users with Purview before a solution exists.
The https://cdn-dynmedia-1.microsoft.com/is/content/microsoftcorp/microsoft/final/en-us/microsoft-brand/documents/MS-Purview-Data-Governance-Roadmap-detailed.pdfstates:
As a data product owner, I can set up customizable workflows for data product access and use Power Automate connector to connect with other applications.
Planning for private preview is Q2, General availability Q3.
This feature will probably help to realize most of the functionality you are looking for.
I've also heard that the official API for the Unified Catalog side is coming soon, though I don't know timelines and don't have any expectations.
Until then, you wait, or try to use the https://github.com/olafwrieden/unifiedcatalogpy. This also doesn't have requests yet though.

Hi Rik,
Thanks for your quick and clear respond, the roadmap document was very useful to see future updates.
Can I ask where i could be informed about this updates? I always find myself jumping from website to website everytime I want to know what's new.
Btw, this Automating workflows it will be very nice.- RikMay 14, 2025Brass Contributor
Hi Nai,
Unfortunately there is no one single way to get all updates, what I do is the following:
- Check this page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/whats-new
- Follow people that work in Purview on LinkedIn. This group is a good start: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9865515/
- A Microsoft Customer Connection Program exists, focused on entire Purview suite. You need to work in a professional organization with an NDA to join. Ask your Microsoft contacts for more information.
Hope this helps!
Best,
Rik
