I don't have a post API where I can test this, but you may be running into a variation of this issue https://blog.crossjoin.co.uk/2016/08/23/web-contents-m-functions-and-dataset-refresh-errors-in-power-bi/ so maybe try putting the url directly into the call to web.contents rather than referencing the URL variable and see if that helps.

Thats it d_gosbell, problem solved. The “Skip Test Connection” option on Power BI data sources does not exist on report server. So it's necessary that the base url on web.content can be reachead by a GET request.

I find it in the link inside the link you suggested here
