Hi joshua1990 ,

 

Here are the known limitations:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/automation/api-rest-api-limitations 

For users, you need to authorize users:https://www.sqlshack.com/how-to-access-power-bi-rest-apis-programmatically/ 

In order to authorize the user, we need to allow the user to sign in to the app and retrieve the access token. Let us prepare the sign-in URL first. The URL is https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize, and it accepts the following parameters.

  • ClientID
  • ResponseType
  • RedirectURI
  • ResponseMode
  • Scope
  • State

 

Best Regards,
Liang
