Connecting to Local PowerBI Report Server using Microsoft.PowerBI.Api

[segan]

Hello,

I am trying to programmatically access PowerBI Server (installed in my local machine) using .NET 4.7.

I have included Microsoft.PowerBI.Api nuget package.

My PowerBI server is configured to use Windows Authentication.

I am not sure what to pass as credential? I tried passing BasicAuthenticationCredentials as well as TokenCredentials object. But I get Unauthorized error.

using (var client = new PowerBIClient(new Uri("localhost:8080/ReportServer"), credentials))
{

var report = client.Reports.GetReports();

}

Could someone please help?

Thanks,

Segan

That nuget package is for working with the Power BI cloud service. I don't think that Report Server has a specific nuget package, but it does have a REST API which should not be too hard to call https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/report-server/rest-api
