Hi,
I'm trying to make the following request:
$api = "api.powerbi.com"
$response = Invoke-WebRequest `
-Method Post `
-Uri "https://$api/v1.0/myOrg/internalScorecards($scorecardId)/goals($($currentGoal.id))/UpsertGoalCurrentValueConnection()" `
-Body ($query) `
-ContentType "application/json" `
-Headers @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $token" }
}
but I'm getting a 401 (Unauthorized) response.
I get my token like this:
$api = "api.powerbi.com"
Login-PowerBI
$bearer = (Get-PowerBIAccessToken)["Authorization"]
$token = $bearer.SubString(6, $bearer.Length - 6)
How can I get authorization to use this api?
Hi @Popopop ,
Please update the code as below when get the token and check if it can resolve the problem...
$api = "api.powerbi.com"
Login-PowerBI
$bearer = (Get-PowerBIAccessToken)["Authorization"]
$token = $bearer.SubString(7, $bearer.Length - 7)
In addition, please review the following blog. Hope it can help you.

Hi, this doesn't solve the problem.
For the record, in the same script I execute this with the token I get (both with the code written in my original post and both with the two methods you suggested me), and this works with no problem:
$response = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://$api/v1.0/myorg/groups/{$groupId}/scorecards($scorecardId)/goals" -Headers @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $token" }
$scorecard = $response.Content | ConvertFrom-Json
So it's that request in particular that doesn't work.
