About using the API to export report from PowerBI

[phchu1226]

Dear All,

I am trying the API (Reports - Export To File) on the microsoft webpage and got the HTTP code 403, do anyone know why? 

I already consented the related permissions on the account, and I am using pro license.

Do I need to consent more permission or need a premium license to do so?

Thank you.

Hi @v-easonf-msft,

Checked the authorization token, granted all permission of PowerBI Service as below.

Then, I tried the RESTful API "Report - Export To File" again, the respond code is still 403..

May I know is it the limitation of "Pro" license, I need to purchase a "Premium" license in order to do so?

Thanks.

Hi, @phchu1226 

If you are referring to the exportToFile API, please check this related document.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/export-to

The feature is still in preview and is limited to Premium capacities.

Hi, @phchu1226 

Please check the authorization token. You need to contacted your administrator and asked him to grant permissions to the token.

For more details, you can refer to this same topic in the developer forum.
