Refresh PBI dataset with ssis

Hello.

I hope you are well.

Especially in this period of health crisis.

I am working on a Microsoft BI solution.

I wish I could refresh a PowerBI Dataset with SSIS.

Do you know if it is possible to refresh a PowerBI dataset with SSIS?

Take care of yourself and your family.

 

Thank you for your help.

    Hi , Lidou_Cand 

    We can  refresh Power BI dataset with REST API using SSIS.

    For more details ,please refer to this document.
    How to refresh power bi dataset rest api using ssis 

     

    To accomplish the goal, firstly, we created the Azure Active Directory application and configured OAuth Connection Manager based on it. Then we retrieved Power BI dataset Id and used it in ZappySys SSIS PowerPack connector REST API Task. Finally, using the same REST API Task we made the HTTP request to Power BI REST API “refreshes” method and successfully refreshed the dataset. Therefore, if you need to make a call to another Power BI REST API method, you will be more confident in doing that, as you know how to call dataset refresh method already. Finally finally, if you make many and huge requests to Power BI REST API, make sure you check its limitations.

      Hello,

       

      I've just seen your answer.

      Thank you for your help.

      Unfortunately, I can't test this solution because we do not have the ZappySys Rest API task.

       

      Do you know if it's possible to resolve my issue without this Task ?

      Thank you.
