Hi
I'm trying to update datasource for my Power BI Reports using the " Gateways-Update Datasource" API. The Datasource is on cloud. I tried to use the below link to test it https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/gateways/updatedatasource#oauth2_credentials_exam...
Below are other details:
Datasource: Cloud
OAuth2 Authentication
Gateway ID and Datasource ID entered which are mandatory
Body: as given in the example from the above link. In the Ket part I have entered the Baerer Key. Also tried with Refresh Key but same error.
Below is the Response:

"detail": {
"type": 1,
"value": "AccessUnauthorized"
}
}
],

}
}
}
Kindly let me know if I have missed something....
Here the solution that worked for me:
Same problem here:
Re: AccessUnauthorized on Mashup engine using Gateways - Update Datasource API
A valid response from a MS expert would be highly appreciated.
Hi @v-qiuyu-msft Can you please check it out as we are getting the same problem while updating the credentials using the rest api and data source is Dynamics business central.
Any inputs my above query...
