Power BI Audit Log - Cmdlet issue

 

Hi Experts,

 

I am trying to extract Power BI logs to a local folder. But I am getting following error when I am trying. I have Power BI admin access, and I have installed all required modules in my machine.  I also tried the workaround suggested in this link, but it didn't solved my problem. I am exactly following the steps the steps mentioned in this video. Can some one please point the mistake I am doing ?

Hi, I can only say that you should be sure you are installing both necessary modules:

  • Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt (CMDLETS) (YES TO ALL)
  • Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement -RequiredVersion 2.0.5 (YES TO ALL)

Then remember your account must have PBI service admin role and exchange admin role. If you have all that I'm not sure what's going on. Maybe a newer version of the libraries have removed the request. There are many users with the same issue on the youtube video.

I hope that helps,

@ibarrau  Apologies for late reply. Thank you so much for your inputs. Yes you are correct some of the module were missing when I was trying. Everything seem to be working now.

 

Thanks again.
