Hi @BartHuls,
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community.

 

As of now, Power BI does not support modifying the XMLA Endpoint access mode via REST API, PowerShell, or any other automation method. This setting is scoped at the capacity level (not the dataset level) and must be updated manually by a Power BI Service Administrator in the Admin Portal. 

Submit your idea to Microsoft. If you get enough votes, they may consider in future. Raise your idea here
