PowerBI Template - parametric REST API - anonymous connection issue
Hi my friend,
You will not like my answer but at least it will save you from useless development.
Online the common advice to solve this issue is to develop a custom connector. I've done it. But in order to make it work you need to have access to a PowerBI Gateway installed on the host machine.
It's almost obvious to say that if you are facing this issue you don't have access to the host machine.
So the custom connector IS NOT a solution in our case.
After that i tried proxing in Azure. A pain.
The only real way i found to do this is to have a PHP Proxy server.
This works but you need a server.
I hope this helps!
Hey nhch, thanks for the update. I appreciate the guidance - as you say, not the solution I was hoping for but at least you've said me some more painful and fruitless testing time!
