[403] error on ExportToFile API request

Noeleke1301 — Thu, 09 Nov 2023 07:21:13 GMT

Hi all,

I keep getting a 403 response on my attempt to export a report to PDF in a Python script.

The report is published in a fabric trial workspace, so it is dedicated
All permissions are set correctly in my Azure app
I'm using clientId and client secret value for authentication
I can see in Azure that my authentication is succesful every time
I'm getting a token as response on the GenerateToken API, but when I use this token to trigger the ExportToFile, I get 403
When I use the "try out" button on the API documentation page and use that given bearer token in my script, everything works fine

Below permissions in my Azure app (they are not available as 'application' permission, only as delegated):

What's happening here and how can I solve this problem?

Thanks.

You wrote: I'm getting a token as response on the GenerateToken API,

Do you refer to the API for generating an embed token? The call to the "Export to File" API should be done with an AAD token (like any other API).

Did you check in the reponse message has additional information in the message body besides the returned error code?

I've solved it now by changing the grant_type to 'password'.
