.NET SDK v3 documentation

Can someone point me to the v3 documentation for the Power BI .NET SDK?

Thanks.

That's the library download, I'm looking for the API documentation.

Hi @rshahrabani 

Beyond the setup notes in the GitHub repo: https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-CSharp I am not aware of any detailed documentation for that SDK in particular (I might be wrong).

The SDK is effectively a wrapper around the Power BI REST API endpoints.
The documentation on the API should help you find the parts of the SDK (and required parameters etc...) that you need.

Believe this is the SDK documentation for V2 which can be misleading with the breaking changes between V2/V3: Microsoft.PowerBI.Api.V2.Models Namespace - Azure for .NET Developers | Microsoft Docs can't find anything similar for V3.

 

Also learned the hard way that using the "DataGateway" PowerShell module loads the V2 assembly if you don't already have V3 registered.
