Working API calls with service principal & data set refresh in postman

Anonymous — Fri, 08 Mar 2019 10:48:12 GMT

Hi,

I'm freaking out here - what a hell of a mess in the documentation. I wasted hours in trying to get an working example in postman for authenticating with a service principal and doing a simple refresh on a dataset 😞

Did anyone achieved it? Any working examples would be highly appreciated...

What we have done so far:

- Created Application

- Created service principal

- Enabled the feature in preview, added the group in which are service p. belongs

- Created workspace, added the security group (admin)

How do I now get the token in postman in order to use it in the next call?

Ok, i'm getting one step closer. I managed to get the access token by using our tenant ID in the oauth call and using the client id (application id) together with our secret:

I tried to do now a simple statement:

I'm using a new workspace (preview) and added the security group as Admin to the members. What's the missing point?

Has really no one a working example? Or I'm the only one who needs a service principial due to some 2FA?

Hi @Anonymous ,

The flow will be , once you get the token

Use the token to takeover the DataSET

Then call the Refresh API using the token

Let me know if you face any issue with this
