Dataset is not Push API dataset

Hello,

I'm trying to retrieve records from within a dataset/table and i'm receiving the following response:

 

{
    "error": {
        "code": "ItemNotFound",
        "message": "Dataset {dataset_id} is not Push API dataset."
    }
}

This is the GET url i'm using is:

https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{group_id}/datasets/{dataset_id}/tables

The dataset that i'm looking to connect to is an existing dataset.  What exactly is an "Push API dataset"?  Is this a setting from within the dataset itself? I'm fariely inexperieinced in the Power BI API thus far and am looking for a bit of guidance on this prticular issue.  Any help would be greatly apprecaited.

Hi @jisaa4880 / @Anonymous 

 

There are 2 ways to create a dataset in powerbi

 

1. From PowerBI Desktop we can easily create report and publish into pbi service

2. Using API Called Push API , programmatically we can also create a dataset by this method.

 

Note: Whenever you are seeing a error like this API supports only Push datasets (in other words meaning you can only use this API against the datasets created via REST API. A normal dataset published from PBI desktop doesn't support this. )
