In an extremely unhelpful move MS have updated app.powerbi and the worksapce id no longer appears in the URL. I can't empahsise enough how unhelpful this move is for us.

When you click on https://app.powerbi.com/  and click on your workspace, it opens up your workspace and you're then taken to your workspace through a url which looks like: https://app.powerbi.com/groups/1234/list. Your GUID is all the characters betweens the two slashes after the word 'groups' and before the word 'list'.
For the example url I've shown here, the GUID is 1234.

Hi Everyone,

 

I am trying to embed a report in a react-based application. When I make changes to the desktop and publish it always creates a new report without replacing the one I used in react app.

 

Any lead will be appreciated,

Hi @sai2,

 

GroupId in the Rest call is not required, if you use the end point , https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/dashboards, you will get all of the Dashboards from 'My Workspace'

 

some MS Sample Code Below

 

 

 static Dashboards GetDashboards()
{
Dashboards response = null;
//In a production application, use more specific exception handling.
try
{
//Create a GET web request to list all datasets
HttpWebRequest request = DatasetRequest("https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/dashboards", "GET", AccessToken());

//Get HttpWebResponse from GET request
string responseContent = GetResponse(request);

JavaScriptSerializer json = new JavaScriptSerializer();
response = (Dashboards)json.Deserialize(responseContent, typeof(Dashboards));
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
return response;
}

 

 



I hope this helps,
Richard

There's no GUID for My Workspace. You can directly import the objects in your "my workspace" withouting giving any GUID. For more details, see Power BI REST API document: Import operations

This is my code and we definitely need GUID (group id ) to get into my workspace,so what can i do now to get GUID of my workspace? GUID ScreenShot.PNG

 

 

@sai2

 

You will find the Group ID in the URL.

 

When you click to open the workspace, the URL will look something like this:

https://app.powerbi.com/groups/1903140f-c1d3-4c09-8dad-04ec6a9d0245/reportname

 

The text highlighted in bold is the GroupID.
