Client id?

AlexHolmeset — Fri, 08 Sep 2017 16:27:56 GMT

Im trying to use the Power BI module in PowerShell:

https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Microsoft.PowerBI.PowerShell/1.2/Content/Microsoft.PowerBI.PowerShell.psm1

But as far as i can understand, i need a onprem webap to register an app in azure and get a client ID? Im on a cloud only environment.

    //Client ID is used by the application to identify themselves to the users that they are requesting permissions from. 
    //You get the client id when you register your Azure app.
    {"client_id", Properties.Settings.Default.ClientID},

    //Resource uri to the Power BI resource to be authorized
    // https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api
    {"resource", Properties.Settings.Default.PowerBiAPI},

    //After user authenticates, Azure AD will redirect back to the web app
    {"redirect_uri", "http://localhost:13526/Redirect"}

@AlexHolmeset

You don't have to create any app. Just follow Register with the Power BI App Registration Tool. Do note not forgetting the step Apply permissions to your application within Azure AD
