I have a .odc (office data connection) that connects Excel to a web service (MSBI, Web PowerBI). ]
It's working fine.
How can I open this connection directly from R?
The odc file contents are:
<odc:ConnectionString>
Provider=MSOLAP;
Integrated Security=ClaimsToken;
Identity Provider=https://login.microsoftonline.com/common,
https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api, xxxxxx-xx-xx-xxxxxx;
Data Source=pbiazure://api.powerbi.com;
Initial Catalog=xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxx;
MDX Compatibility= 1;
MDX Missing Member Mode= Error;
Safety Options= 2;
Update Isolation Level= X;
Locale Identifier= 10XX
</odc:ConnectionString>
This is what I tried so far:
powerbi.app <- oauth_app(
appname = "pbiazure://api.powerbi.com XXXX-XX-XXX-a611",
key = "XXXXXXXXX",
secret = "XXXXXXXXX")
powerbi.token <- oauth2.0_token(powerbi.urls, powerbi.app,
user_params = list(resource = "https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api"),
use_oob = FALSE)
But it is returning the following error:
> AADSTS900561: The endpoint only accepts POST, OPTIONS requests. Received a GET request.
In the end of the day, I just want to load my company's "queries/view" available on PowerBI Web directly into R.
Thanks,
