Hi,
Is there a specific rest api which provides the following details for a dataset
Whether it is a Shared Dataset ?
Whether it has endorsement (Promoted, Certified) ?
thanks
Scott

Hi, @PaisleyPrince
Power BI doesn't provide a direct API to check if a dataset has been shared. However, the concept of a shared dataset in Power BI refers to the ability of a single dataset to be consumed by multiple reports across workspaces.
Again, there is no direct API to check the endorsement status of a dataset. In Power BI, IT admins can mark a dataset as certified when it's authoritative.Dataset owners can promote their dataset so others can explore it further.This information may be available in the dataset's metadata but not directly accessible through the API.
