Invoke-RestMethod : The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.

Windows 2012R2 x64

PowerShell ISE

 

Script from PBI as is:

while($true){

$endpoint = "https://api.powerbi.com/beta/xxxxxxxx"

$payload = @{

"Measured" =123
"DateTime" =Get-Date -Format F
"MachineName" ="Test"
"TargetValue" =1672
"MinValue" =0
"MaxValue" =6000

}
Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post -Uri "$endpoint" -Body (ConvertTo-Json @($payload))
}

 

Return folowing error:

Invoke-RestMethod : The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
At line:16 char:1
+ Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post -Uri "$endpoint" -Body (ConvertTo-Json @($payload ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebException

Hi @mrslyfox,

 

Since it works in Win 10, I would suggest:

1. Follow how-do-i-get-the-body-of-a-web-request-that-returned-400-bad-request-from-invoke to get more details of the error.

2. Check your code with the information in the Service.

Invoke_Rest_Method

3. A little possibility that caused by Firewall.

4. Upgrade the Power Shell.

 

Best Regards,

Dale
