Push dataset and replace existing one connected to report - REST API
Hi jaryszek ,
1) Do i have to delete whole dataset and post new one? Or i can replace somehow existing one?
I checked the REST API list and there is no API for replacing dataset.
Datasets - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Docs
You may consider replacing the data source and republishing it here.
2) What steps should look like and how to write json to post dataset for this one table?
Not supported.

Hi jaryszek ,
Yes, but this has some limitations. Only paginated reports are supported to replace data sources of the same type.
I apologize for overlooking this, is your report a paginated report?
What are paginated reports in Power BI Premium? - Power BI

o wow thank you.
It is just a report.
So no way to connect to existing published report and change json files inside it?
