Description

When I use Get-PowerBIDataset and pass the GUID of a personal workspace as parameter, it crashes with

Get-PowerBIDataset : Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes (xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx)

even though the parameter is well-formed. However, it works fine with the GUIDs of "regular" workspaces.

Research direction

Reproduce the crash by running Get-PowerBIDataset with a personal workspace GUID, then trace how the cmdlet handles the workspace parameter. Done means personal workspace GUIDs are accepted without the format error while regular workspace GUIDs continue to work.
