Guys!
I have registered a Native app on Azure and gave the permissions for Power BI APIs. So I have only client ID for this app, and no client secret.
I tried to get an access token for this app so later I get an embed token for Power BI reports. I am using Python ADAL library, which works for Web Apps but it does not work for my Native app.
Using Postman I tried POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/token. It works for Web App, but still I cannot get access token for Native app.
Can anyone suggest a way to get access token for Native app via Postman (just api) or Python?
Thanks.
p.s. authetication with password gives the error "error_description":"AADSTS50076: Due to a configuration change made by your administrator, or because you moved to a new location, you must use multi-factor authentication to access '00000009-0000-0000-c000-000000000000" , and I do use multi factor authentication.
Hi Shimflex,
Please check if you selected the native app option when you register with the power bi app registration tool. In addtion, use Native app for apps that run on client devices. You will also do choose Native APP if you are embedding content for your customers regardless of what the actual application is. Even for web applications.***
Please refer to Register with the Power BI App Registration Tool and also refer to this smilar case:
