Hello Everybody,
I have a problem with a Power BI API
First i get the Token:
$url = 'https://login.windows.net/' . $directoryIdAzure . '/oauth2/token'
/** @var GuzzleHttp\Client $client **/
$response = $client->post(
$url,
[
"headers" => [
"Accept" => "application/json"
],
'form_params' => [
'resource' => 'https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api',
'client_id' => $clientIdAzure,
'client_secret' => $clientSecretAzure,
'grant_type' => 'client_credentials',
'username' => $user,
'password' => $pass,
'scope' => 'openid',
]
]
);
$body = json_decode($response->getBody()->getContents(), true);
$token = $body['access_token'];
After i need list all Workspaces using a token
$client2 = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
$res = $client2->request(
'GET',
'https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups',
[
'headers' =>
[
'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . $token,
'Accept' => 'application/json',
'Content-type' => 'application/json'
]
]
);
$workspaces = json_decode($res->getBody()->getContents(), true);
Return this error for me:
"Client error: `GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups` resulted in a `401 Unauthorized` response"
The permissions in the Azure it's OK:
Solved! Go to Solution.
I Solved my problem.
I change
'grant_type' => 'client_credentials',
to
'grant_type' => 'password',
and I had to disable Security Defaults in the Azure
Azure Portal > Azure AD > Properties > Click on Manage Security Defaults link > Toggle Enable Security Defaults button to NO.
I hope thats help anyone.
You also need to enable use of the Fabric API within the Developer settings of your Power BI tenant. See ths link for details: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/embed-service-principal
