Hello,
From what I understand, the App-Owns-Data Starter Kit has a pbix template that uses the report to display in the different scopes that are created. My question is how can I change that pbix? Can I put several since in my case I have more than one report?
As it seems, take the following code to do it:
public PowerBiTenant OnboardNewTenant(PowerBiTenant tenant) {
PowerBIClient pbiClient = this.GetPowerBiClient();
// create new app workspace
GroupCreationRequest request = new GroupCreationRequest(tenant.Name);
Group workspace = pbiClient.Groups.CreateGroup(request);
tenant.WorkspaceId = workspace.Id.ToString();
tenant.WorkspaceUrl = "https://app.powerbi.com/groups/" + workspace.Id.ToString() + "/";
// add user as new workspace admin to make demoing easier
string adminUser = Configuration["DemoSettings:AdminUser"];
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(adminUser)) {
pbiClient.Groups.AddGroupUser(workspace.Id, new GroupUser {
EmailAddress = adminUser,
GroupUserAccessRight = "Admin"
});
}
// upload sample PBIX file #1
string pbixPath = this.Env.WebRootPath + @"/PBIX/SalesReportTemplate.pbix";
string importName = "Sales";
PublishPBIX(pbiClient, workspace.Id, pbixPath, importName);
Dataset dataset = GetDataset(pbiClient, workspace.Id, importName);
UpdateMashupParametersRequest req =
new UpdateMashupParametersRequest(new List<UpdateMashupParameterDetails>() {
new UpdateMashupParameterDetails { Name = "DatabaseServer", NewValue = tenant.DatabaseServer },
new UpdateMashupParameterDetails { Name = "DatabaseName", NewValue = tenant.DatabaseName }
});
pbiClient.Datasets.UpdateParametersInGroup(workspace.Id, dataset.Id, req);
PatchSqlDatasourceCredentials(pbiClient, workspace.Id, dataset.Id, tenant.DatabaseUserName, tenant.DatabaseUserPassword);
pbiClient.Datasets.RefreshDatasetInGroup(workspace.Id, dataset.Id);
return tenant;
}
The issue is that in my pbix I access the data through a data source that I have in powerbi, if I simply change the pbix it gives an error because it tries to connect to a database that does not exist.
Do you know how I can proceed to change a pbix/add more to this code?
Thanks.
Is there no one who can help me?
I want to use another pbix but it doesn't connect to any sql database, it's just a pbix connected to a data set from another pbix and with more than one report.
Hi @apenaranda ,
According to your description, if you are connecting datasets in the service, you cannot merge pbix. The connection mode is Live connection.
Reports that share a dataset on the Power BI service don't support automated deployments using the Power BI REST API.

Hello,
So the only way I have is to use a pbix with the data?
I mean, not the one that comes as an example but another one of mine and with more than one report inside.
The thing is that when you create the tenant, you create it with all the reports there are... I don't know if it would be possible.
Thank you very much.
