token is generated but getting 401 on embed report

hello all 

im running the standard sample from github which is here:

https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-Developer-Samples

 

previously i adapted this for the .net core framework

and got it to work

 

but now im rebuilding for .net standard framework and its not working

im stepping thru just the sample (i havent made any code changes to sample other than passwords) - 

i can tell it generated the token

 

but when it goes to calling the report 

ie:  https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed?reportId=xxxxxx&groupId=xxxxxxxxx

it comes back with a 401

at line 532 in embed.ts

  node.appendChild(iframeContent); 

 

can anyone help me with some suggs here?

 

 

 ps: i tried the following endpoints

<add key="authorityUrl" value="https://login.windows.net/common/oauth2/authorize/" />
<add key="authorityUrl2" value="https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/token" />
<add key="authorityUrl1" value="https://login.windows.net/common/oauth2/token/" />

so after a little more investigation

apparently there was something up with chrome

 

the clue was when i went to 

https://app.powerbi.com

(ie, just generically - no call to any report) 

that i still got the 401

 

so i dumped my cache and restarted machine

bingo - im back

Hi @toy,

 

Which example is it? It seems the "App owns data". 

1. Did you build the project?

2. Did you get the web clientID and update it in the "Web.config"? 

3. Did you publish it to a website? (it could be Localhost)

4. Did you grant proper permission in the Azure portal?

 

Best Regards,

Dale
