Publishing PBIX file progammatically

[JasonAkin]

Hi I am trying to figure out how to programmatically publish a .pbix file that is using a dataset that is already published. So the PBIX file is just the report. I keep getting the below error. Does this work differently for reports that are using the POWER BI Dataset or can anyone point me in the right direction.

{StatusCode: 400, ReasonPhrase: 'Bad Request', Version: 1.1, Content: System.Net.Http.StreamContent, Headers:
{
X-PowerBI-Error-Info: PowerBIModelNotFoundException
X-PowerBI-Error-Details: {"error":{"code":"PowerBIModelNotFoundException","pbi.error":{"code":"PowerBIModelNotFoundException","parameters":[],"details":[],"exceptionCulprit":1}}}

This is what I am sending

Hi @JasonAkin,

Based on my research, there is no limitation to programmatically publish a .pbix file live connect to Service dataset. In your scenario, please test whether you can publish the report to service successfully via clicking the "Publish" button manually.

Yes I have had no issue publishing it manually. I am working with the project from github 

https://github.com/criticalpathtraining/pbixinstallerforpowerbi

I am able to see all my workspaces contents but having an issue with the import.

My company receintly decided to give access to users to manage and change reports but do not want them publishing so we are trying to set up an automated process that will publish and archive the file so that we have a history or receint changes.

I finally got it to work and wanted to post my solution.

I had to change the url passed by adding in myorg/groups as well as the GUID of the App that I wanted to publish to.

"https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/[guid]"
