Even Copilot thinks it should be available:
Updating a specific row directly in a Power BI dataset using the API is not supported. However, you can achieve this by using the Push Dataset method, which involves deleting the existing row and then adding the updated row back into the dataset.
Steps to Update a Contact in Power BI Using API
1. Get Access Token
Ensure you have an access token to authenticate your API requests.
2. Delete the Existing Row
Use the Power BI REST API to delete the existing row with the specific contact ID.
Example API Call to Delete a Row
DELETE https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId}/tables/Contacts/rows
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer {access_token}
{
"rows": [
{
"id": 1234123
}
]
}
Which is just as 1ame... Shame on you!
