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:
Can anyone advise? This still seems to be an issue??????
Thanks.

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.
