Publish Report via API with Registered Resources
Hi Anonymous,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.
Yes, this is a known limitation when working with .pbip files that include registered resources like images. When publishing via the Fabric REST API, the API currently doesn't handle those registered resources properly evem though they’re included in the .pbip structure, the API doesn't resolve them during deployment. That’s why you're seeing the “resource cannot be located” error.
At the moment, there’s no official support or workaround through the API for this. The safest options for now are eitheravoid using registered resources in .pbip files you plan to deploy via API, or publish the report directly from Power BI Desktop, which handles the resource references correctly.
Hopefully this is something that gets addressed in a future update, but as of now, this behavior is expected.
If I misunderstand your needs or you still have problems on it, please feel free to let us know.
