Power BI OAuth Scopes

OAuth 2.0 searched

Power BI publishes 17 OAuth 2.0 scopes via the authorizationCode and clientCredentials flows. Scopes are the fine-grained permissions an application requests at authorization time to act against the Power BI API on a user’s behalf.

Tokens are issued from https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token.

This index is generated from the provider’s OpenAPI security definitions (and, where available, its documented scope reference) and refreshes on every APIs.io network build. Browse every provider’s scopes at scopes.apis.io.

note: >-
  Power BI authorizes via Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) OAuth 2.0. The curated
  OpenAPI declares only an http-bearer scheme, so no scopes are derivable from
  the spec; the scopes below are the documented Power BI Service delegated
  permissions requested against the resource
  https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api. Application permissions
  (client-credentials) use .default and are governed by tenant admin settings.
schemes:
  - name: AzureADOAuth2
    type: oauth2
    flows:
      - flow: authorizationCode
        authorizationUrl: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize

      - flow: clientCredentials
        tokenUrl: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/oauth2/v2.0/token
        note: Uses the .default scope; requires tenant admin consent and Power BI service admin settings.
