Power BI REST API Cloud Connection

Hi,

 

Is there any way using REST API, to manage users in a Cloud Connection?

Ideally, we want to add a Service Principal as a User of a Cloud Connection from REST API´s.

I think this is more towards the On-premise data gateway and not with the cloud connection. I have the same problem. I am trying to manage the cloud connection with api but I got permission issue with gateway. I don't know where the gateway settings for the cloud connections are. 

I still don't understand what the point of these "Personal Cloud Connections"  settings is. Would be better if these could be hidden.

That is not a personal cloud connection but a shareable cloud connection. 

Do you have one of the supported data sources?

 

Currently, these cloud connections are not supported by Dataflows, Dataflows Gen2, and Datamarts. To create personal cloud connections for these experiences, please use the Dataflows or Datamarts editor in "Get Data".
