403 on Api call
Hi
I keep getting the following when I call the https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/datasets/{datasetId}/tables
Error obtaining tables: StatusCode: 403, ReasonPhrase: 'Forbidden', Version: 1.1, Content: System.Net.Http.HttpConnectionResponseContent, Headers:
{
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
X-Frame-Options: DENY
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: RequestId
RequestId: ed07e6ec-e517-42c6-b6a6-03d55e1ccc15

Content-Length: 51
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
}
I am generating a token based on my web api app in Azure being registered and having given it all the permissions that seem relevant.
Any advice? I'm going spare trying to get this API to work - basically, I am trying to empty my dataset so I can reinsert my data again. Nothing I can do will make it get beyond the 403 error.

Hi Mattdjuk ,
To enable your Azure AD app access objects such as reports, dashboards and datasets in the Power BI service, add the service principal or master user, as a member or admin to your workspace.
For reference: Enable workspace access
You may refer to your below offical blogs to learn more details about how to register an APP or Service Principal.
For reference:
Embed Power BI content with service principal and an application secret

I've tried this, it makes no difference - the result is the same

I also came across the error 403 frequently while first testing the API. I appeared I missed a few configuration items.
I summarized it in this document Use Power BI APIs from Azure Data Factory - Mattias De Smet
If it still doesn't work, you can provide your basic calls (which url, which method, which headers, etc...)? I noticed sometimes people use app.powerbi.com , which results in 403 because it has to be api.powerbi.com

Hi,
Not sure if you have fixed the error but for me it happened the same and the solution was very simple.
just go to the processor settings and unselect the Asynchonous Pattern and that's all.
