Refresh a Dataset with an API error

I use this API to automatically refresh a dataset via a Powershell script with a Service Principal, however when I run the script I get this error in the dataset.

Do you know why?

 

My script :

$IDWKS = Get-PowerBIWorkspace -Name 'WKS - [REC] FINANCE'
$IDDTS = Get-PowerBIDataset -WorkspaceId $IDWKS.Id

Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url "https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/$($IDWKS.Id)/datasets/$($IDDTS.Id)/refreshes" -Method POST -Body ('$($IDDTS.Id)')

Do exactly as the error message says.  Refresh the credentials in the dataset settings page. Credentials do expire, service principal or not.
