Hi,

We dont have REST api support to rename the dataset. There is an idea. Please vote - https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=232b13eb-d2a4-4dde-aaf8-cef403759f14

 

I think we dont have REST API even for report rename but we have something here. Please check - 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/reports/update-report-content-in-group

 

Otherwise you can clone a report using the below rest api with new name and delete the old report.

Thanks
