Hi All,

 

We want to update the dataset through API using Program. we know there is API to udpate the datasource, but we don't see any APIs to update or change the dataset through api or manually also in service.

 

Please help us if there are any way to update or change the dataset (table) in power bi service.

I want to change the data set in server using API.

You can't (yet). Raise an idea or vote for an existing one.
