REST API GetTables for PushDataset

Hi, 

 

documentation says this API https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/pushdatasets/datasets_gettables#table

should return a JSON Object of type Tables what should be an array of table objects what should contain meta information of columns.

But the only response I get on my request is:

 

{
  "@odata.context": "http://wabi-west-europe-redirect.analysis.windows.net/v1.0/myorg/$metadata#tables",
  "value": [
    {
      "name": "RealTimeData",
      "source": []
    }
  ]
}

Can I access the deeper structures and if yes, how?

 

best Peter

Hi @HInkelstein ,

This API only applies to push dataset, please check if your dataset is a push dataset. Please review the content in the following link, hope they can help you.

Hi @v-yiruan-msft , thanks for your answer! Yes, my dataset was created as streaming dataset with "historic data analysis" button set to on wich should result in a push dataset if I understood correctly. Pushing data by api and creating a report and a dashboard works also. The REST API Call GetTables is responded with 200 but I'm missing a deep table object in the JSON response telling me something about the columns of the dataset.

 

Thanks Peter
