I am trying to update the connection string of a live connection power bi report published to the service. In order to do so, I am using the "Update Datasources In Group" datasets operation of the REST API. I'm getting an "InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebException" in the response. Is is possible to change connection strings of published Power BI reports in live connection mode? Below is what I am trying to do and the response that I am getting... Thanks,
Request
$body = @" { "updateDetails":[ { "connectionDetails": { "server": "$($targetServer)", "database": "$($targetDatabase)" }, "datasourceSelector": { "datasourceType": "$($datasourceType)", "connectionDetails": { "server": "$($originalServer)", "database": "$($originalDatabase)" } } } ] } "@ $uri = "https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/$groupsPath/datasets/$datasetID/Default.UpdateDatasources" Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $uri -Headers $authHeader -Method POST -Body $body
Response
Invoke-RestMethod : The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
