Hello,
I'm trying to get a list of pipelines using this:
Items - List Data Pipelines - REST API (DataPipeline) | Microsoft Learn
This is the behaviour I have noticed:
Workspace contains pipelines -> Status 200 OK
Workspace does NOT contain pipelines -> Status 401 Unautorized
Surely it should be 200 regardless of the content? Has anyone else noticed this? Is this a known issue?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Not the only inconsistency in the API responses.

It turns out I got confused with what the service principal can and cannot access!
I first got a list of workspace ids using:
GET https://api.fabric.microsoft.com/v1/admin/workspaces
Then, I assumed I could get the list of pipelines within those workspaces using:
GET https://api.fabric.microsoft.com/v1/workspaces/{workspaceId}/dataPipelines
As it happens, the service principal had access to the workspaces containing pipelines but not the other ones (hence the confusion).
Now I know that I need to run an admin API call to get all pipelines from all workspaces (regardless of individual workspace permissions), such as:
GET https://api.fabric.microsoft.com/v1/admin/items?type=dataPipeline
Documentation here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/fabric/admin/items/list-items
Thanks! I just wanted to double-check that I wasn't missing something before submitting a support ticket!
