Rest API datasets error PowerBISqlCommandTimeout

Hello 

 

When running the rest api call: 

Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/admin/datasets"  -Headers $token -Method Get
 
I am getting this error (started today):
 
{
    "error": {
        "code""PowerBISqlCommandTimeout",
        "pbi.error": {
            "code""PowerBISqlCommandTimeout",
            "parameters": {},
            "details": []
        }
    }
}
Anybody knows what it could be? I can't find any reference to PowerBISqlCommandTimeout.
 
Thanks 
Miguel

Managed to solve the issue by adding this before the webcall:

$client = [System.Net.Http.HttpClient]::new()
$client.Timeout = 300
 
Happy weekend everybody!

Hi. Is that all the error? can you check for a status code and text of the response? that might helps us understand more about the issue.

Thanks for checking.

That is all the error message unfortunately.

 

If instead I use the MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt.Data Get-PowerBIDataset method in PowerShell:

 

Get-PowerBIDataset -Scope Organization


I get this error:

Get-PowerBIDataset: The request was canceled due to the configured HttpClient.Timeout of 100 seconds elapsing.

 

I've no idea where to change the timeout.

 

Thanks

That's weird. A request will always response a status code.

Check adding a "Top" or "First" parameter on the MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt.Data for getting a small number. If that's not working, then you might have an access or permission issue with that token.
