Unable to trigger fabric data pipeline using REST API's
munnas - The API that you use to trigger a Fabric Data Pipeline does not support Service Principals. You have to use a named user account & password. They will be bringing service pricipal support to more API's in the future.
It does work with Username/Password as we are able to do that within our Company. It will eventually work in Power Automate but since the API does not return a response the HTTP Post with Azure Entra (preauthorized) does not function properly.
There is another thread in the community that goes into more detail. It's fairly recent.

You can take a look at this topic: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Data-Pipeline/How-to-trigger-an-on-demand-run-to-a-pipeline-from-a-API/m-p/4248175

munnas - Sorry for the delay; I will ask our Dev Team to share the snippet from our web app. They are on Holiday; so it may not be until Monday/Tuesday next week.
