$datasetsVal = $datasets.value
$datasetsId = $datasetsVal.id
Above script return all IDs. but I need get ID by name.

Hi Anonymous
Currently, there is no suitable REST API to retrieve the dataset ID according to the dataset name. You can search all the datasets under this workspace through the workspace ID, then export the results, and then return the dataset ID according to the dataset name.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/get-datasets-in-group
If you are not sure of the workspace ID, you can get the dataset information of the entire organization through the following API, and then retrieve the dataset ID through the dataset name.

You can try working it out via PowerShell if you want to
You can also try using this API to find all datasets and look for the one that you want:
https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets
Get the output from above and then filter out based on name and use that id.
