Model has invalid creator user

When I am generating my token by url: https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/GenerateToken with API REST

 

I'm getting the following return:

{
"error": {
"code": "InvalidRequest",
"message": "Model has invalid creator user"
}
}

I couldn't figure out what it means, does anyone have any ideas?

Hi @Anonymous,

According to the error message, it seems not related to power bi GenerateToken rest api.
Have you reference the prerequisite and operation steps that mentions in official document mentions about generate token? If not, I'd like to suggest you take a look at the following link at first:

Generate an embed token in Power BI embedded analytics - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

BTW, can you please share some more detailed information about the detail operation steps? They should help us clarify your scenario and test to troubleshoot.
