The Scanner API is part of the Power BI admin API. It enables administrators to efficiently and automatically retrieve valuable information about their organization's Power BI assets, such as inventory, metadata, and lineage. In turn, they can leverage this information for their own custom-made solutions.
The API was developed with the aim of improving the efficiency and performance of the Power BI scan so that it could support large numbers of data assets while still conforming to the security practices of organizations. The scanner supports service principal authentication and incremental scanning, and returns metadata such as endorsement status, sensitivity label, etc.
The Scanner API reached GA over a year ago, and a growing number of organizations now actively use it to better understand their products and to get information that helps them achieve their governance goals.
