Power BI REST API "Try-It" feature GONE?
Hi mwade_cte1926 ，
"Try It" feature be disabled on every pages in PBI REST API has been confirmed as an active known issue.
A temporary alternative solution is to use postman.
Get access token first, then you can call Power BI Rest API in postman by this token.
For reference: Power BI REST API using postman - generate embed token.
I will keep an eye on this case and update if there are new developments.
And I will mark my reply as the answer for more people to see this message.

Thanks for the response, even though it's quite a shame. The "Try It" feature was a very useful feature that I used quite frequently weekly. Is this something that we can vote to get back?
