Custom Connector Error for Power BI API

(0) Share

Posted on by Justair07

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to create my first Custom Connector to use for calling a custom PowerBI API for refreshing a dataset. I followed this procedure step by step and got to the part where I'm getting an error "Operation failed (404)"

I did exactly as the procedure says to resolve the issue (exit, wait a few minutes, try again) but I'm still getting error.

Edit: could the issue be because the Selected connection * is my Admins credentials and not my own?

It turns out that was my issue. I needed to swith the Selected connection back to my login. This returned a successful Test operation. The problem is when I run my custom connector from a custom recurring Flow, I get a Failed error stating that the dataset was not found 😞

Any ideas why?

Hi @Justair07 ,

Could you try with a different dataset to see if it will work?

Please check the Id you are using to make sure the item does exist.

By the way, please make sure you add in curly brackets a variable name when configuring the URL field.

Best regards,

Mabel

When I test my custom connector it is successful and the dataset refreshes without issue. But when I try to run the connector in a flow, it fails with this error. I've tried with and without curly brackets.
{ "error": { "code": "ItemNotFound", "message": "Dataset {1a494582-2fe3-4331-******} is not found." } }

@v-yamao-msft I'v tried about 5 datasets without success. Does it matter if the dataset is on premise or if it has to be on my local machine?
