RE: Update rows Rest API

Even Copilot thinks it should be available:Updating a specific row directly in a Power BI dataset using the API is not supported. However, you can achieve this by using the Push Dataset method, which involves deleting the existing row and then adding the updated row back into the dataset.Steps to Update a Contact in Power BI Using API1. Get Access TokenEnsure you have an access token to authenticate your API requests.2. Delete the Existing RowUse the Power BI REST API to delete the existing row with the specific contact ID.Example API Call to Delete a RowDELETE https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{groupId}/datasets/{datasetId}/tables/Contacts/rowsContent-Type: application/jsonAuthorization: Bearer {access_token}{ "rows": [ { "id": 1234123 } ]}Which is just as 1ame...

RE: Update rows Rest API

Is there any timeline on this? We have a project and I want to use Power BI for it but Update is needed. Delete/Insert will produce inaccurate stats on the report and it is a waste of resources besides.

RE: Update rows Rest API

Power BI is useless from a buisness standpoint. We tried using it for a while but they only add features noone asked for and don't implement what users need.
Our company running in 63 countries has now finally decided to transfer to functioning dashboard software.
