the token i got from azure does not seam to have te persissions i gave til ap in "app registrations"
the code om using to acquire the token is
string resourceUri = "https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api"; string authorityUri = "https://login.windows.net/common/"; AuthenticationContext authenticationContext = new AuthenticationContext(authorityUri); var AuthResult = authenticationContext.AcquireTokenAsync(resourceUri, new ClientCredential(ClientID, AppSecret)).Result; return AuthResult.AccessToken;
