Import a PBIX and Poll Until Published

with Power BI · Analytics & BI Management

Publish a PBIX into a workspace and wait for it to finish importing.

  1. Upload the PBIX as multipart form data. The service accepts the file and returns an import record that begins life in the Publishing state.
  2. List the workspace's imports and wait until none remain in the Publishing state. This API exposes no get-import-by-id operation, so the workspace import list is the only available completion signal.
  3. Enumerate the workspace datasets so the dataset the import created can be matched by name and handed to a refresh or rebind flow.
  4. Enumerate the workspace reports so the report the import created can be matched by name and its embed URL captured.
What you'll need to have ready
  • groupId: The identifier of the workspace to import into.
  • datasetDisplayName: The display name for the imported file, including the .pbix extension.
  • file: The PBIX file content to upload.
  • nameConflict: How to handle an existing item with the same name. One of Ignore, Abort, Overwrite, or CreateOrOverwrite.
