retrieve metadata sources SSAS

I have several workspaces with reports, datasets, etc in my https://app.powerbi.com/home

Is there a way to write some sort of query in https://app.powerbi.com/home  and retrieve all cubes used on every report?

 
I am not sure where exactly can i execute the GET command? Where inside https://app.powerbi.com/ can I execute that GET command?
 
My goal is just to get a dump of report and cube name that it consumes from...

You will want to know for sure. As @V-lianl-msft mentioned you need to have tenant admin rights for some of these queries.

Hi @Anonymous ,


Please make sure The user must have administrator rights (such as Office 365 Global Administrator or Power BI Service Administrator) or authenticate using a service principal.
If you don't have this permission, you can try to use this API:

Perhaps I thought there is a way of executing it, but from the app.powerbi.com Edge tab?

Are you on shared capacity or on Premium?

Did you notice the green "try it" button on the link you provided?  Click that one, sign in, and then provide the dataset id for the dataset you want to dump the queries from.
