How to authenticate PBI Rest API with MFA ?
I need to automate a PowerShell script that accesses the Power BI Rest API and does some stuff. I have the script working fine. The hurdle is how to authenticate with Power BI when automating the PS script? Note that my organization uses MFA authentication.
Thanks much!

Hi Dan_Sprague ,
I'd recommedn go for SPN Autentication instead of username/password type.
