Dataset User Access

I need help pulling all the users and their access from each of the datasets on app.powerbi.com. 

 

Ideally, I love to pull them in through PowerQuery.

Hey @Trying2Excel ,

 

The API will let you get the users across the datasets.  You can do this in Power Query but not as easily in the Service.  This is the location:  Admin - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn  Specifically, for users of datasets, I believe that this will do the trick:  Admin - Datasets GetDatasetUsersAsAdmin - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn

Thank you, when I was reseaching this I came upon the same links. I am admin user on the service but I dont have access to the API, is that something that is seperate? 

Hi @Trying2Excel ,

 

Yes, that API part is a separate setup.  This entry by @v-luwang-msft here: Check if REST API is enabled - Microsoft Power BI Community goes through the steps to set that up.
