PowerBi embeded data sources query

I am looking for a way to query the ReportServer database to find the name of the embeded data sources in a PowerBi report.  I know how to do this for SSRS reports, but can't figure out how to get it...

    Hi tcschroeder ,

    Power BI Desktop as a tool does not have a corresponding database (like when report server is deployed, a corresponding database is created, so we can look up its data source information via sql). We need to use Power BI Desktop to open the PBIX file and then view the data source through the following interface.

    Best Regards
