Hi @ginoroy ,
How did you connect to the Rest API, PowerShell or web connector?
Please show your M code in 'Edit Query' or the shell code.
Please refer to the code.
Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount
$Workspace = Get-PowerBIWorkspace -All
ForEach($Workspace in $Workspace)
{
$Url = 'https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/'+ $Workspace.Id + '/datasets'
Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url $Url -Method Get
}
Disconnect-PowerBIServiceAccount

Hi @v-lionel-msft ,
I am also trying to achieve the same automation, however, this requires a user interaction to login. MFA is enabled for our tenant. and service principal with client id and client secret are unable to return Admin API. Is there a way around this? To be able to automate the process? Many Thanks
