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.

Note - if you're using powershell for the first time, U will need to install Powerbi Module by running below command in Powershell as adminstrator.

Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt
