PowerBiClient object accessing exception

[bhagya]

Hi

I am facing the  exception while creating the PowerBiClient Object.

Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=7.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

By looking the solution in one of the forum , i have added the redirecting dependecy aw well.  but still facing this issue.

Task<AuthenticationResult> tokenAccessKey = Program.GetToken();
var tokenCredentials = new TokenCredentials(tokenAccessKey.Result.AccessToken, tokenAccessKey.Result.AccessTokenType);

using (var client = new PowerBIClient(new Uri(ApiUrl), tokenCredentials))

{

}

Questions:  is these below making this problem

1. What should be my ApiUrl ? ex: "https://app.powerbi.com/"

2. my tokenCredentials object's Client ID and Tenent Id returning null. event though the tokenAccessKey  is valid

Yes, the ApiUrl is "https://api.powerbi.com/".

As to the null values, the probable reason is the not well installed Newtonsoft.Json. Try to uninstall and reinstall it following this thread.

Hi,

I faced this issue becasue of version conflict of Newtonsoft.Json between "6.0.0.0" and "7.0.0.0"

"Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=7.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."

Download 7.0.0.0 from nuget and add in webconfig. started working.

Thanks,

Hi, @bhagya 

I know it has been a while, but I am getting this error when running the powershell cmdlet

Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=xxxxxxxxx' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot
find the file specified.

You mentioned that you Download 7.0.0.0 from nuget and add in webconfig.

How did you do that?

Sorry if it sounds silly, but I am a newbie
