    Hi, 

    I agree that it's a powershell issue but I thought I would post here since it was in relation to Power BI. I figured out the issue on my own. These are the two pieces of code I had to update to make the sample work (in case anyone is interested in doing this too):

    Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri -Headers $authHeader -Method POST -Verbose

In addition, here is a similar thread for your reference.
