Microsoft Power BI Overview#

The Microsoft Power BI API allows you to interact with your Power BI assets programmatically. With this API, you can embed your reports and dashboards into applications, manage Power BI datasets, push data into datasets for real-time dashboard updates, and automate your reporting workflows. On Pipedream, you can use this API to create intricate workflows that react to various triggers, like webhooks or schedules, and perform actions like refreshing datasets, posting to datasets, and managing Power BI assets.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common.mjs";

export default {
  key: "microsoft_power_bi-dataset-refresh-completed",
  name: "Dataset Refresh Completed",
  description: "Emits a new event when a dataset refresh operation has completed. [See the documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/get-refresh-history)",
  version: "0.0.4",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  ...common,
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    checkStatus(status) {
      return status === "Completed";
    },
    getSummary() {
      return "New Refresh Completed";
    },
  },
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Microsoft Power BI	`powerBiApp`	`app`	This component uses the Microsoft Power BI app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Dataset ID	`datasetId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Custom Dataset ID	`customDatasetId`	`string`	You may enter a Dataset ID directly. Either Dataset ID or Custom Dataset ID must be entered.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

Microsoft Power BI uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Microsoft Power BI account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Microsoft Power BI and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Microsoft Power BI API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
