Get Dataflow Data Sources generates error 500

[Anonymous]

Hi Microsoft,

When running the following command:

GET https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/dataflows/{dataflowId}/datasources

It works for most DataFlows, but sometimes get the following error:

{
"error": {
"code": "",
"message": "An error has occurred."}
}
Please resolve.

Cheers, Steve

Hi  @Anonymous  ,

Can you provide more detailed error information?

Regarding the problem of 500 when using rest api, checking the documentation shows that this is a server error, not a client error. I guess if there is a problem with your dataflow itself. When using rest api, also pay attention to the value {groupId}, { dataflowId} If you need to change, fill in the ID of the dataflow of which workspace you visit.

This is the website about rest api:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/dataflows/getdataflowdatasources

This is about the error 500 of the Rest api:
