We are building a Reporting Portal in our SaaS application using PowerBI embeded.
Some of the Reports and Dashboards that will be embeded use RLS.
We have been able to populate the UI with a list of Reports and Dashboards using the Rest API.
When embeding a Report the 'Report' REST api response fields include a DatasetId which can then be used to populate the EffectiveIdentity and get the embedToken.
The 'Dashboard' response does not include a list of reports or datasets from which dataset Id's can be obtained to populate the EffectiveIdentity.
How can dataset Id's be obtained from the Rest API for a given Dashboard Id?
thx.
Solved! Go to Solution.
It looks to me like you can get the tiles that are included in the dashboard, and the tiles include the datasetId's

The link provided by @vbigham is good for My Workspace. If you will use any other then you would need this API - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/dashboards/gettileingroup
