Hello,
I have a user group requesting that we turn on a refresh schedule in the service during quarter end reporting, with a water mark over the report showing the data isn't signed off on yet. Then they want a button on the report for when they are comfortable with the numbers that they can press that will both remove the watermark and turn off the refresh schedule.
Can I accomplish this using a web URL button in combinatation with the XMLA endpoint? We are using premium capacity.
Thank you,
Solved! Go to Solution.
@BrandedSaiyan What I would recommend would be to use Power Automate to fire off a flow. You can call the REST API or use PowerShell as a task within the flow. You can tie a button to the flow using the Power Automate visual.
@BrandedSaiyan You could use the REST API/Power BI PowerShell cmdlet.

@Greg_Deckler can I allow the user who is consuming the report call the REST API endpoint through use of a button?
Thank you! We need to register our tenant still to make use of the API.
