Able to push data to a streaming dataset through Python script from my local. But, not able to connect to API URL with the same script from Linux. Can you please help me on this.
Hi, @Anonymous ;
The main reason for the failure is probably a port problem. Power BI verifies only the word fields and information in the request.

I have gone through above two links those you have provided. I tried to post some sample data to the streaming dataset. Below is the script I have used,
import requests
api_url = "https://api.powerbi.com/my dataset url"
todo = {"userId": 1, "title": "Buy milk", "completed": False}
response = requests.post(api_url, json=todo)
print(response.json())
{'userId': 1, 'title': 'Buy milk', 'completed': False, 'id': 201}
print(response.status_code)
This is working fine and I'm able to post data from my local machine. But, when I execute the same script in my Linux I'm getting below error.
requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.powerbi.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: my dataset url (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x7f7cf678f640>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 110] Connection timed out'))
Do I need to add this api url in AllowList? If yes, how can I add it. Can you please share any link or process to add it. Otherwise, do I need to ask my Linux/Azure admin to add this api link to AllowList?
Thanks!
