Datasets - Put Dataset User In Group

Service:
Power BI REST APIs
API Version:
v1.0

Updates the existing dataset permissions of the specified user to the specified permissions.

When user permissions to a dataset have been recently updated, the new permissions might not be immediately available through API calls. To refresh user permissions, use the Refresh User Permissions API call. This API call can be used to remove all the dataset permissions of the specified user by using datasetUserAccessRight: None

Required Scope

Dataset.ReadWrite.All

Permissions

The permissions for this API call are listed in Datasets permissions.

Limitations

  • Updating permissions to service principals (app principalType) isn't supported
  • Caller must have ReadWriteReshare permissions on the dataset. That is, folder admins, members and contributors with Reshare permissions, or dataset owners.
  • This API can't be used to add or remove write permission.
  • This API can't be used to remove folder-level inherited permissions. For folder admins and members, the ReadWriteReshareExplore permission on the folder's datasets is inherited. For folder contributors, the ReadWriteExplore permission on the folder's datasets is inherited. For folder viewers, the Read permission on the folder's datasets is inherited.
