HI @kanth999,

I think you may miss the required part in the request so these requests do not work. 

It works well when I test the script with all required parameters: (since the API has no response so I check that in my workspace and you can find the dataset has been updated correctly)

Test script:

$Body ="{'notifyOption'='NoNotification'}"
Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url 'datasets/62b66b9e-a296-439f-8fb2-95b526196c13/refreshes' -Method Post -Body $Body

Can you please let me know, is there are any documents that will run the PowerShell commandlet in Mac os?, Mac OS is suitable to run the PowerShell commands ?

HI @kanth999,

If the modules do not require any additional package that your system does not support, you can also run these on the mac os system.
I check the document and found it seems not to include any additional software requirements so I think these scripts may also work on your device. (prerequisites are for PowerShell itself: windows system PowerShell 3.0 and .net 4.7.1, other types of system PowerShell core support and PowerShell core v6)
