Get Dataflow ID from datasource/gatewayID
Hi smpa01 ,
The Power BI REST API provides programmatic access to the report server catalog. However, it does not provide a direct way to retrieve the dataflow IDs from the datasource IDs.
The datasource ID returned by the REST call is specific to the dataset and not directly related to the dataflow ID. The dataflow ID is unique to the dataflow and is used to identify it in the Power BI service. GET Datasources
If you have the dataflow URLs, you can extract the dataflow IDs directly from the URLs. In your case, the dataflow IDs are and .66a51eae-0d1e-4c84-a63e-e7747e5959374a9c6855-3de5-4942-88e4-e8ba66e72e66
Unfortunately, without access to admin APIs, there’s no direct way to map the datasource IDs to the dataflow IDs using the Power BI REST API. You might need to maintain a separate mapping of datasource IDs to dataflow IDs in your application.
Best regards.
