Thanks for the info.  But the issue I have is different.  We are not generating Access Token, we acquire the Access Token using Azure AD secret ... the issue is why the token returned does not work when it is used with Power BI REST API ?

      Do you mean you did NOT have admin rights? I'm also stuck on this.
