Update dataset published via Power BI API

Hi Folks:

 

I am looking to use an Azure HTTP triggered function to refresh a Power BI Dataset.  This would be called from a Azure Data Factory Pipeline to kick off a data set refresh once my data has been reloaded.

 

Can someone point me in the right direction?  I would need a way to authenticate and trigger a refresh in a 'headless' fashion, i.e. without interacting with the app to log in.

 

So far, I seem to be hitting what I think are permission problems but maybe I just marched off into the weeds in my approach.

Maybe c# code for how to refresh a data set?  I'll worry about the Azure Functions and the pipeline bit, I am just stuck on just trying to automate telling Power BI to refresh when I am done importing and moving/cleaning my data.
