Import Statuses

dgdragon — Wed, 24 Jan 2018 19:20:22 GMT

When I import a PBIX file, I can get the import status using the route:

https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/[org-id]/imports/[import-id]

and it returns something similar to:

{
"id": "[import-id]",
"importState": "Succeeded",
"createdDateTime": "2018-01-24T19:14:31.527Z",
"updatedDateTime": "2018-01-24T19:14:31.527Z",
"name": "[name]",
"connectionType": "import",
"source": "Upload",
"datasets": [],
"reports":[]
}

I would like to know what are the possible values are for "importState", is there a reference list somewhere?

Hi @dgdragon,

After a few research, I haven't found any article/blog that has a full list of importStates. However, I did find a few more importStates:

Publishing
Published
Succeeded
Failed

Following is a use case of importStates.

                    // Example of polling the import to check when the import has finished.
                    while (import.ImportState != "Succeeded" && import.ImportState != "Failed")
                    {
                        import = await client.Imports.GetImportByIdAsync(workspaceCollectionName, workspaceId, import.Id);
                        Console.WriteLine("Checking import state... {0}", import.ImportState);
                        Thread.Sleep(1000);
                    }
