API calls no longer working
Hi there
I have been using the auth URL below to authenticate against the Power BI API (Using Powershell) for months now and yesterday it just stopped working
https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/token
I now receive the error:
The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
I have tried to debug the call in Postman and it appears the grant_type parameter is not being validated correctly. Even though it is specified, I always receive the error:
Please could this be investigated as none of my Power BI refreshes are currently running
Thanks a lot
Hi kirby,
That might be the changes or the issues of AAD. According to the #use-the-authorization-code-to-request-an-access-token, the grant_type should be authorization_code. Please check it out. Please also refer to the below posts for the similar approaches.

Hi Dale
Thanks a lot for the info. I did visit most of these sites yesterday but without any luck. I tried the same thing now and it seems to be working
Thanks again
Cheers
