New API Endpoint with DAX Queries
- 5 years ago
I finally got this partially worked out with the help of one of the very helpful Power BI engineers. For some reason datasets in My Workspace don't seem to be getting proper build permissions, so I decided to switch to just testing datasets in my v2 workspaces.
I initally thought that I had to use the format https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId} because that is what I'm accustomed to doing. This will probably change as this gets closer to GA, but for now you actually just remove the parts about the group and reference the dataset directly. For example: https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/datasets/f388a618-2c93-41c5-8528-44c0c1129d70/executeQueries
Once I made that change, I was able to return data from a Powershell script and Postman. Still not sure about the permssions in My Workspace, but I'll likely never use that anway.
rjhale Anonymous Could you please post your full working code? I am also having the same issues but having a hard time following the fixes in this thread.
My powershell code:
$requestUrl = "datasets/291666dc-09a2-44e3-ba8b-24b590fd9331/executeQueries"
$requestBody = @"
{ “queries”: [{“query”:”EVALUATE SUMMARIZE('Calendar','Calendar'[Year],"Days in year",COUNT('Calendar'[Date]))“}], “serializerSettings”:{“incudeNulls”: true}}
"@
Login-PowerBI
$result = Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Method Post -Url $requestUrl -Body $requestBody
$parsed = $result | ConvertFrom-Json
$parsed.results[0].tables[0].rows | Format-List
Error (same as yours):
Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod : One or more errors occurred.

The error suggests that the DAX is wrong, but it's copy/pasted from the source .pbix file.
I have tried removing the ' in the DAX. I have tried different urls. Same error every time. I'm losing it over here so any help you can provide is appreciated!!
