Power BI API Selective Deploy Dataflow via Service Principal

[powerbi_jenhen]

Hi,

I am currently successfully deploying Power BI reports, datasets, dashboards and paginated reports via the Power BI API Selective Deploy end points within a DevOps pipeline, I authenticate via Service Principal. However, when I attempt to deploy a dataflow I receive "ALM_InvalidRequest_ServicePrincipalNotSupported", is this correct, a service principal can deploy all artefact types except dataflows?

I'm using the same code as for reports and datasets etc but obviously tweeked for dataflows as microsoft details:

$body = @{

            sourceStageOrder = $stageOrder

            dataflows = @(

                @{sourceId = $dataflowArtifactId }

            )     

            options = @{

                allowCreateArtifact = $TRUE

                allowOverwriteArtifact = $TRUE

            }        

        } | ConvertTo-Json

        $deployResult = Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url $url -Method Post -Body $body | ConvertFrom-Json

Thanks Ibendlin,

Are you also of the opinion that this should be a working API call? There's nothing obvious that I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

The whole CI/CD space is still in its infancy, might as well influence it according to how you think it should work.
