Hi I was trying to refresh dataset using the Power Bi API and getting 401 Unauthrorized error message.
I was able to get the access tone by passing the parameters --(grant_type : "client_credentials"), (client_secret:XXXXXX)
The application is registred as Native client in Azure portal and granted Read/Write Dataset permission but still i was getting the error message -"The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized."Please let me know if i need to post my code
Thanks in advance
Hello,
Are Data Source credentials separate per each Workspace?
Can I publish the same desktop file to three different workspaces in my account and then in "Schedule Refresh" enter in each workspace different credentials?
Thanks!
Hi there,
Is there a way to password protect reports when wanting to share to public users (non powerBI users?). I can't seem to see anything in the publishing options that would allow for this.
For example, I know in tableau you can create reports, then share with users behind a login, even if they don't have tableau. It seems like quite a basic feature that would be quite advantageous, but not simple to achieve in PowerBI.
The way I'd see this working would be the ability to create 'external collaborators' in the online report view. You could then give them a username/password and a link to access the report.
Any ideas much appreciated.
Thanks
Hello,
My data set (API based, tiny, maybe 20 rows of data) takes 3-5 seconds to refresh in My workspace
But 2-5 minutes(!) in another Workspace I have created...
I have done multiple tests including deleting dataset and reuploading... still the same
Any ideas why and how to fix this?
Thanks!
Hello,
Are you able to export a visualization (i.e. table visualization) to a table in a database?
I created a visualization in PowerBI Desktop, pulling SalesForce Object data thru the Online Services option. Everything works fine in PowerBI Desktop, I'm able to hit the Refresh button and the SalesForce data is updated. In order to share the data visualization, I created a Workspace in the online PowerBI app and then shared the visualization in that workspace. The visualization is visible via the PowerBI App, but the data is not able to be refreshed. It does not appear to be recognizing the SalesForce Object data source within PowerBI Online. I could always refresh the visualization in the Desktop version, then re-share it to PowerBI Online, but that's an inefficient workaround. Any ideas on how a SalesForce Object can be refreshed from within the online PowerBI app?
I created model with Dataaflow and an onpremise sharepoint list as a source. After publishing the report i get Extension { extensionDataSourceKind : "PowerBI" , extensionDataSourcePath : "PowerBI" } cant be added to the gateway when i try to refresh the report. Gateway for on premise source is working fine. Need help. Thanks

Hi,
I have been trying to create my data flow and connect it to my SQL Server hosted on the cloud (on Ubuntu 18.04).
The problem is that I receive the following message : "Unexpected error: Session ID ...."
It's working only when I create and use a gateway on-premise installed on my local computer.
But I shouldn't need this gatewate given that my source is not on-premise... And it's not convenient at all because it would mean that my PC has to be open 24/7 if I want to perform regular data refresh.
What could be the easiest solution?
Thanks
Hi,
Why is not possible to add a data source Share Point folder in the app.powerbi.com with Microsoft Authentication?
My current data looks like the above image and I want to have all the rows in the column ProjectID without any duplicates. I tried to unpivot and pivot the data and ended with pic2
Although I got the required format, I get the error "There were too many elements in the enumeration to complete the operation".
I looked at other threads with the same problem but it did not work out. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
Are any of you experiencing issues publishing large (100 MB or largers), imported datasets? We have several individuals that have stated that it fails with this message:
"Unable to write data to the transport connection: An existing connection was forceably closed by the remote host"
These are targeted to Premium Workspaces so it's not due to limits and had worked prior to this week.
From my understanding, the way we have our database hosted is on an Azure VM with SSMS stored locally there. I've seen a few ways of connecting using the BLOB storage, but in this case I'm not sure that is how we have it set up. Is there a way to connect to this VMs locally stored SQL Server Database?
Update: I was able to pull the server name from the system along with the authentication method, but when trying to use the credentials to log for the authentication, it is not accepting it as valid credentials.
I can not see anywhere to cancel my pro licence? Anyone know where to look?
There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details.
Hi Community,
How exactly is powerBI embedded priced?
I'm not very familiar with this service....
In addition to the hourly price on the official website, is there any additional cost? For example, based on the amount of data, transmission, etc.
Please help to solve my question. Thank you!
Hi Everyone, good afternoon.
I have already linked the Attachment from Exchange Outlook Mailbox onto PowerBi Desktop and uploaded it to PowerBi Service.
However, the refresh function cannot be scheduled, it shows 'Your data source can't be refreshed because the credentials are invalid. Please update your credentials and try again.' & there is no Authentication Method under Edit Credential Tab for Exchange but other data sources (Python).
Thx
Best regards,

We are trying to save the state of the slicers and apply them.
We get the state using getSlicerState () and, on the onLoad event, we try to apply them with .setSlicerState(),
When we try to apply the saved state, we get an error:
The state that we save and try to apply:
Why we can't use the saved state for the same slicer аnd what do we need to do to apply them?
For other slicers, it works correctly, the problem only with Hierarchy Slicer.
Hi,
I created a report on Power BI Desktop. In that report I retrieve a Excel file from Sharepoint Online. For Authentication I use OAuth, so with my personal organizational account.
I would now like to move the datamodel from my Power BI Desktop file to a SSAS Tabular model using Visual Studio and Tabular Editor.
My question now is: how can I set up a connection to Sharepoint Online without using my personal organizational account? I don't want the connection to depend on one person's login details. I want a more future-proof solution that is independent of inidividual employees. In the end I need Power BI Service to be able to schedule a refresh.
Is there any way to set this up? Can SSAS communicate with Sharepoint through other ways than a organizational account?
Thanks in advance.
Hey all,
just started to try out the incremental refresh, but I have a question:
Imagine I have a data source that contains all transactions per store per day. I set up the datetime filter that incremental refresh requires. After that I use group by in powerquery to display the data only per store, leaving out the date column.
I then publish this report to service, and set a refresh schedule.
My question is: what happens in the service? Does incremental refresh still make sense in this instance? It seems to me that because you did a group by, and powerBI only stores the end result of the query, and not the intermediate steps, it would still need to do a full refresh of all your data every time, and the incremental refresh would not work at all.
Is that assumption correct?
Thanks!
Jaap
