postman rest API autorization token to automate

[HFT]

Hi All,

I am using postman rest API url to get data in power Bi through passing content-type and Authorization bearer token headers (which were static), but recetly our organization took some measures to make the authorization bearer token to get refreshed every 15minutes. Now here the real problem raised for me, as I cannot go and change the access token frequently in advance editor, i want that process to be automated.

please help me in solving the issue

Regards

Hi  @HFT ,

As far as I know, if your "get Power BI" data action is supported by Power Automate, you can just consider trying to use Power Automate's reoccurrence stream to trigger the stream every 15 minutes to generate an AAD The token is placed in the Power Bi rest API or you can use Power Automate's Power BI action to automate token expiration avoidance.

For more information on Power Automata’s Power BI action support, please see this document.

For information on how to generate AAD tokens using Power Automate's http action, see this case configuration.
