    Hi Anonymous ,

    Sorry for the delay.

    Based on the official docuement, you need to be granted the View analytics permission if you want to edit an Analytics view or connect to an Analytics view in Power BI.

Hi,

Currently i made some awesome dashboards using both the Azure Devops Analytics Views aswell as the Odata feed to connect to the Azure Devops API.

For the API i used the following URL: https://[organization name].analytics.visualstudio.com/[project name]/_odata/v3.0-preview to request for example all the Work item information. This works like a charm.

But now the issue: i want to request all workitems for all projects at once. 

I was planning to do this using the following URL:

https://analytics.dev.azure.com/[organization name]/_odata/v3.0-preview

Here the problems begin. While i use the following link im for example allowed to request all the Projects information. But when i use this link to request the WorkItems information i get the error Access to the resource is fobidden. 

I tried searching for a solution on Google and i believe this has something to do with collection level permission within Devops however im not 100% sure. Besides that, the organization does not want to give me full administrator permissions there, which is understandable. 

Im looking for people who had the same issues and know how to set and what permissions i need to request the whole lot.
Thanks alot for once again helping me.
