PowerBi Workspace Integration with Git - Auto Sync

Hello All,

 

We are working on an automation piece where we would to like make end to end PowerBI Deployment making use of Deployment Pipelines, workspaces with PowerBI Desktop Project files. When the user commits his changes to Workspace, then the changes should be synchronized automatically. Right now the functionality is like, when the user commits changes, we need to go to workspace and click on Source Control-> Commit/Udate All button to make the changes gets reflected in workspace.

 

Do we have any solution or API to make the changes gets reflected(synchronized) automatically without a manual intervension.

 

Thanks,

Bhaskar Desharaju

      Hi Zhu,

       

      Thanks for your input. We have automated the deployment pipeline from Azure DevOps, but the problem is different. Let me explain you the steps to reproduce.

      1. PowerBI WorkSpace is integrated with Azure DevOps repositories branch 

      2. User created PowerBI Desktop Project files that contains Datasets folder and Report folder

      3. User check-in his changes in Azure Repositories Branch as in Point-1

      4. Now, user has to go to Workspace in PowerBI Service (https://app.powerbi.com) and then click on Update All button to sync manually as in the below pictue. 

       

       

      5. We want to avoid this, which means as soon as the user checks-in the branch, the changes should be syncrhonized automatically without logging into the service. Do we have any API/CLI for this process.

       

      Thanks,

      Bhaskar D

        Hi, We're you able to find a solution to this usecase? I'm looking at a somewhat similar usecase, hence checking to see if you've found something?
