    Hi Anonymous ,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

     

    The error you're getting from Get-PowerBIActivityEvents means your current Power BI account doesn't have the required admin privileges to access activity log data.

    You must have :

    • Power BI Service Administrator OR

    • Office 365 Global Administrator

    If you're not one of these, you'll need to request access from your IT/Admin team.

     

    Regards,

    Chaithanya.

Think either the dates are misformed or no data in the period. 

 

Try outputting the datetimes strings to sense check. Also try looking back a full 30 days, without a activitytype file

This is a wrapper on the Get Activity Events API. Make sure you are fabric admin or using a service principal with delegated permissions.

    If I didn't have fabric admin role, I think I would have gotten 403 unauthorized but now I'm just getting bad request. Can you confirm if this is true?
