Set Dataset Permissions for Entire Organization through API

[Anonymous]

We have a workspace containing datasets that should be available for the entire organization to read and to build their own reports on. Since the content updates frequently we are using DevOps CI/CD pipelines to keep the content up to date.

I want to use the REST API to set ReadExplore permissions to these datasets for the entire organization.

According to the documentation you should be able to set the principalType to "None" to grant access for the entire organization.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/put-dataset-user-in-group#principaltype 

However, when I test this call in Postman I get an error:

Body:

{
  "principalType": "None",
  "datasetUserAccessRight": "ReadExplore"
}

Error:

{
    "error": {
        "code": "InvalidRequest",
        "message": "API supported only for User or Group principal types"
    }
}

Am I missing something here or is the documentation wrong on this fact?

That is not really related to the app permissions.  You can set these once when you publish the app. No need to do this via API, or to update this whenever your content changes.

I am not talking about APP permissions, I'm talking about DATASET permissions

In your AD find PDLs that cover your entire audience. Add these PDLs to the dataset permissions.
