Can I set up a PostDataset API in PowerBI Service?

[adwilliams]

Hello,

I am scoping the possibilty of POSTing data to the Dataset endpoint of the PowerBI Rest APIs. I know that this is possible for PowerBI Desktop, but is this also possible for getting data into PowerBI Service?

Thanks!

"I know that this is possible for PowerBI Desktop"

Really? How?

That API call is only applicable for the service.

Apologies, I wrote this wrong, I meant it I know it is available for Service!

Is there a similar way to Push a dataset to Power BI Desktop? Ideally, I would set this up not for my organization but on behalf of my customers.

No, service only.
