Microsoft Power BI ACTION
Get Refresh History
Get the refresh history for a Power BI dataset. Use List Datasets first to resolve a dataset name →
datasetId. Pass workspaceId (from List Workspaces) or workspaceName to scope to a specific workspace, or omit both for My workspace. Each entry includes requestId, refreshType (OnDemand, Scheduled, ViaApi, etc.), startTime, endTime, status (Completed, Failed, Disabled, Cancelled, Unknown — Unknown means still in progress), and serviceExceptionJson on failures.

IMPLEMENTATION
Call this tool
Connect a user's Microsoft Power BI account once, then configure and run Get Refresh History from your backend or agent.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"
const pd = new PipedreamClient({
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
projectEnvironment: "production",
})
const result = await pd.actions.run({
id: "microsoft_power_bi-get-refresh-history",
externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
configuredProps: {
microsoft_power_bi: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
datasetId: "Dataset ID",
workspaceId: "Workspace ID",
},
})
console.log(result)curl -X POST https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/actions/run \

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)
const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:

Inputs
Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
datasetId Dataset ID | string | ID of the dataset. Use List Datasets to find IDs by name. Required |
workspaceId Workspace ID | string | ID of the workspace. Use the List Workspaces tool to see accessible workspaces. Omit to target My workspace. Optional |
workspaceName Workspace Name | string | Name of the workspace (alternative to Workspace ID). Use the List Workspaces tool to see accessible workspaces. Optional |
top Top | integer | Number of refresh entries to return (most recent first). Max 200. Omit to return the default page. Optional |
REFERENCE
Tool details
Behavior hints are published with the component in the Pipedream registry and surface as MCP tool annotations, so an agent can reason about a tool before it calls it.
