Hi @Anonymous ,

Please review the solution in the following thread, hope they can help you achieve the requirement.

Programatically start/stop Azure PowerBI capacity for PowerBI Embedde

Pause and start Power BI Embedded programmatically

Yes, you can use the Azure ARM APIs suspend and resume.

Or, you can use a Power BI Embedded PowerShell script; Suspend-AzPowerBIEmbeddedCapacity and Resume-AzPowerBIEmbeddedCapacity.


PS C:\> Resume-AzureRmPowerBIEmbeddedCapacity -Name "testcapacity" -ResourceGroupName "testRG" -PassThru
