I have the challenge, want to host a PowerBI report embedded where the Row filter is to be implemented via the CustomData feature.
When I use the CustomData property, I have the problem that when calling the GenerateTokenInGroupAsync function, it always throws a BadRequest error message.
When I call the GenerateTokenInGroupAsync function without a CustomData property I get back a valid result, only the report is not filtered.
Code
GenerateTokenRequest generateTokenRequestParameters = new GenerateTokenRequest(
accessLevel: "View",
identity: new EffectiveIdentity(
username: PowerBiAuthConstants.Username,
datasets: new List<string> { reportConfig.DatasetId },
roles: new List<string> { "Username" },
customData: fgnr));
var tokenResponse = await client.Reports.GenerateTokenInGroupAsync(
groupId: reportConfig.GroupId,
reportKey: report.Id,
requestParameters: generateTokenRequestParameters);Exception
Massage: Operation returned an invalid status code 'BadRequest'
