Problem refreshing Usage Metrics Report

Hi there 

 

I have found this website to remove Usage Metrics Reports from one specific workspace:

Datasets - Delete Dataset In Group - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Docs

 

Unfortunately, I do not know how to call the mentioned "DELETE https://...." API. Do I need a tool, a website? Why is this not described in this "support" website? 

 

Please help, thanks...

Hi  @webchris ,

You can use Postman to call rest api.

Postman is an API platform for building and using APIs. Postman simplifies each step of the API lifecycle and streamlines collaboration so you can create better APIs—faster.

Hi @webchris ,

 

Can you tell me how you solved it using PowerShell. I'm facing the same issue. Unfortunately, the dataset of the Usage Metrics Report is not accessible using the GUI. 

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Cheers,

Dom

Hi Dom I am very sorry, but I cannot recall the solution any more.
