    The simplest of the PBIRS API calls is as shown in the screenshot. 

    Here is the code if you want to invoke the same API call using PowerShell 

     

    $Cred = Get-Credential
    $Url = "http://powerbi.local/Reports/api/v2.0/Me"
    #Invoke-RestMethod -Method 'GET' -Uri $Url -UseDefaultCredentials -OutVariable UserContext
    Invoke-RestMethod -Method 'GET' -Uri $Url -Credential $Cred -OutVariable UserContext
    echo $UserContext

     

     

    Here is the list of PBI RS APIs that you can play with.

     

    Please accept the solution, if you agree.

     

    Cheers,

    You can set your cedentials at the GET request level by choosing the Authorization method as "NTLM Authentication".

     

    This is when you are on windows and using Windows Authentication. You can also set the Domain of your Org. in the advanced properties.

Hey Anonymous, I'm trying to call Power BI to rest APIs from an Angular Application using HTTP get request, also passing all the required params and the Auth token through the request header but getting 304 forbidden error in response.

The strange thing is the same request is working through the Postman with the same request header and params.

I'm not sure what causing this issue...
