Mohan128256_0-1708954166428.png

 

 

 

(group as text) =>
let
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/datasets/ & group &"/datasources", [Headers=[Authorization=fnGetToken()]])),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromRecords({Source}),
    #"Expanded value" = Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Converted to Table", "value"),
    #"Expanded value1" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded value", "value", {"datasourceType", "connectionDetails", "datasourceId", "gatewayId"}, {"value.datasourceType", "value.connectionDetails", "value.datasourceId", "value.gatewayId"}),
    #"Expanded value.connectionDetails" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded value1", "value.connectionDetails", {"emailAddress", "server"}, {"value.connectionDetails.emailAddress", "value.connectionDetails.server"})
in
    #"Expanded value.connectionDetails"

 

 

I need to push this to power bi service and schedule the refresh but unable to because it has dynamic URL.

 

can any one please help me with relative path for this power query.

 

Thanks,

Mohan V.

Hi,

 

For fnGetToken in the "body" variable you are using client informations so you should use the relative path for that too.

@ZekO I did tried many ways but unable to get that right relative path for the fngettoken.

 

Could you please give me the right relative path for it please.

 

Thanks,

Mohan V.

Thanks for your response.

 

I have tried below changes but still when i publish this, I am getting the warning of dynamic url.

Three parameters been created for 

TenantGUID = ParamTenantID,
ApplicationID= #"ParamClientID",
ApplicationSecret= ParamClientSecret,

 

function to get token

 

fnGetToken

 

() =>
let
   TenantGUID = ParamTenantID,
   ApplicationID= #"ParamClientID",
   ApplicationSecret= ParamClientSecret,

   OAuthUrl = Text.Combine({https://login.microsoftonline.com/,TenantGUID,"/oauth2/token"}),
   ClientId = Text.Combine({"client_id",ApplicationID}, "="),
   ClientSecret = Text.Combine({"client_secret", Uri.EscapeDataString(ApplicationSecret)}, "="),
   GrantType = Text.Combine({"grant_type", "client_credentials"}, "="),
   Body = Text.Combine({"resource=https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api", ClientId, ClientSecret, GrantType}, "&"),

   AuthResponse= Json.Document(Web.Contents(
       OAuthUrl,
       [
           Content=Text.ToBinary(Body)
       ]
   )),

   AccessToken= AuthResponse[access_token],
   Bearer = Text.Combine({"Bearer", AccessToken}, " ")

in
   Bearer

Could you please help me on where I am going wrong in making the relative path in functions.

 

Thanks in Advance.

@lbendlin This approach is working for only orgonizational account but not for anonymus.

 

Am i doing anything wrong here.

 

 

@lbendlin This is a old report which been developed and published.

 

So, for the time being, i need to make schedule of this dataset in powerbi service.

 

I have to get it done through this way.

Could you please guide me here.

 

Thanks,

Mohan V
