Update credentials using API after PostImportWithFileInGroup

Hi!
I am attempting to copy a PowerBI report & datasource that successfully connects to Azure Table & Blob data sources.

After retrieving the file with ExportReportInGroupWithHttpMessagesAsync() and posting back with PostImportWithFileInGroup(), I can see the file in the workspace.

Programatically calling RefreshDatasetInGroupAsync() fails however because the credentials for the datasources have not been copied as well? Is there a way to do this using the SDK and without resulting to manually calling the REST APIs?

 

I see threads like this https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Unable-to-update-dataset-credentials-after-uploading-a-pb... indicating the solution is to use the REST APIs but that's three years old.
