Hi,
The documentation about the Graph API in Fabric only contains an example in react using MSAL.
(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/data-engineering/connect-apps-api-graphql)
This includes a manual process because the APP authenticates the end user and it seems to be using the end user permissions to get to the graph API.
Is there a way to do this without the manual step? How to obtain a token for an App Registration, for example?
I tried to reproduce this in Postman, but I couldn't achieve any good result.
Is there any example of reproducing this in postmand using an app registration authentication to get the token?
Kind Regards,
Dennes
Hi @DennesTorres,
As the document said, currently API for GraphQL requires applications to use Microsoft Entra for authentication. Your application needs to be registered and configured adequately to perform API calls against Fabric.
Create a Microsoft Entra ID app - Microsoft Fabric REST APIs | Microsoft Learn
In addition, it seems like current GraphQL API does not support service principal authorization. Perhaps You can try to submit an idea for add service principal support on this.
