Admin - Groups GetGroupsAsAdmin
Hello,
I use the api : Groups GetGroupsAsAdmin with a Synapse pipeline to retrieve and store data.
However, I can't get the description of the datasets and reports, even though the documentation says that we can get them.
Documentation : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/admin/groups-get-groups-as-admin
Anyone know why?
Hi Charline_74 ,
You can only get a description of the workspace level using the current API, you can't get a description of the report or the dataset. If you want to get the report and dataset description, you can use the following two REST API.
Reports - Get Report In Group - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn
GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/reports/{reportId}Datasets - Get Dataset In Group - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn
GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId}Best Regards

Hi Charline_74 ,
Which REST API request you are trying to call? Did you expand to dataset level? Please call the request below to get it:
GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/groups?$expand=datasets&$top=100Best Regards
Hi Anonymous,
Yes, I use the API with an expand dataset. I do get information about my dataset, but not the description.
