Rest API - 401 PowerBINotAuthorizedException - some datasets

Hello 🙂 

I am strugling with Rest API 401 response when trying:

 

 

POST https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId}/executeQueries

 

 

I have an app, app have acces to all write/read options, config for it is 100% good. 

 

I wrote script in python to read data about all datasets in given workspace.

Then I use that, to query all of the datasets. On one workspace I query 16 datasets, an recive error on 6 datasets. Other 10 queries results are perefctly good result. 


App is admin on workspace, DAX queries are simple and different, examples below.  I cannot find anything in common for this datasets which blocks me from geting expected results. 

 

 

 

dax query = EVALUATE ROW("******* Report", ROUND( 'MEASURES_TABLE'[Current Measure), 0))

Dataset info: {'@odata.context': 'http://wabi-north-europe-g-primary-redirect.analysis.windows.net/v1.0/myorg/groups/*******/$metadata#datasets/$entity',
 'id': '*******',
 'name': '******* Report',
 'expressions': [],
 'roles': [],
 'webUrl': 'https://app.powerbi.com/groups/*******/datasets/*******',
 'addRowsAPIEnabled': False,
 'configuredBy': '*******',
 'isRefreshable': True,
 'isEffectiveIdentityRequired': False,
 'isEffectiveIdentityRolesRequired': False,
 'isOnPremGatewayRequired': False,
 'targetStorageMode': 'Abf',
 'createdDate': '2023-01-12T13:36:13.71Z',
 'createReportEmbedURL': 'https://app.powerbi.com/r*******',

 'upstreamDatasets': [],

Does the dataset where it fails have RLS enabled?
