Powerbi api Admin - Capacities AssignWorkspacesToCapacity capacityMigrationAssignments data

[argometrix]

I wanted to set power bi capacity to a specific workspace using this https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/capacities/AssignWorkspaces api. I have the request body set as
{
"capacityMigrationAssignments": [
{
"workspacesToAssign": "worspace_id",
"targetCapacityObjectId": "capacity id"
}
]
}
I also tried to pass it as object but doesn't seem to be working. What type of data does capacityMigrationAssignments take and how is the data passed in postman?

Even I'm facing same issue, How to pass workspace ID and capacity ID. Can you share sample request body?

[asarraf21]

this is the payload that worked for me:

{
	"capacityMigrationAssignments": 
	[
		{
			"targetCapacityObjectId": "capacity-id",
			"workspacesToAssign": [
				"workspace-id"
			]
		}
	]
}

Hi @argometrix ,

If you want to assign the provided workspaces to the specified capacity, there're some notes:

Note: The user must have administrator rights (such as Office 365 Global Administrator or Power BI Service Administrator) to call this API.

Required scope: Tenant.Read.All or Tenant.ReadWrite.All
To set the permissions scope, see Register an app.

This is the example Request:

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/capacities/AssignWorkspaces' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
	"capacityMigrationAssignments": ""
}'

Your solution -clearly- does not address the problem, you keep the capacityMigrationAssignments block empty.
