Power BI REST API Limitation: Get Pages in Group
Currently, no limitations are observed within the regular REST API.
The Product Group informed the community last February they were aware this new limit is affecting users and their actual implementations; they shared this workaround in the meantime as a solution for the new throttling limit:
“While we work on refining the throttling limits for the GetDatasourcesAsAdmin API, we understand the importance of providing viable alternatives for our users. As a temporary workaround, we recommend leveraging our scanner APIs to access all data source information for your tenant. The scanner APIs offer a robust solution for retrieving datasets and related data source information.
For more information, please refer “-

Please mark this post as solution if it helps you. Appreciate Kudos.
Thank you for your response, but unfortunately, it does not address the actual question.
First, the issue I’m referring to concerns the **Get Pages in Group** endpoint — clearly stated in the subject, body, and even the provided link — not GetDatasourcesAsAdmin.
Second, the suggested workaround using the Scanner API is not applicable in this context. The Scanner API does not return report pages, so it cannot replace Get Pages in Group.
Please take a moment to read the question carefully before responding. Providing unrelated answers causes confusion and undermines the clarity of technical discussions in the community.
"GetDatasourcesAsAdmin" is an example, they applied the 50 rate to all; it effects your Get Pages in Group too.
The 50 rate is per user.
Replies like the one you just left to people who are voluntering their time to help are rude and will not encourage people to continue to help you.
Thanks for your reply.
Just to be clear — there was nothing in your original message that said GetDatasourcesAsAdmin was just an example. It looked like you were giving a direct answer to my question about Get Pages in Group, and the workaround didn’t apply at all.
If this 50-requests-per-minute limit really applies to all endpoints, could you please share the source or announcement where that’s confirmed?
That kind of info is important for people using the API in production.
Thanks again for taking the time to help.
