dscmd asking for server when connection string is provided

tnhurst57 — Fri, 02 Aug 2024 18:24:04 GMT

Attempting to connect to my Power BI dataset in a workspace. Docs say either provide connection string - or server/database. Here the dialog:

dscmd csv myfile.csv --connectionstring "Data Source=powerbi://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/IBCE
_Dev;Initial Catalog=IB Targeting Dashboard" -q "EVALUATE 'Master'"
Error: You must specify a Server option

Hello tnhurst57,

If dscmd is still requiring a server option despite the provided connection string, can you please try explicitly specifying the server and database separately:

dscmd csv myfile.csv --server "powerbi://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/IBCE_Dev" --database "IB Targeting Dashboard" -q "EVALUATE 'Master'"

Hope this helps.
