Description

We are currently working to setup GitHub actions for Data flow deployments. We use SPNs but Dataflows management is not supported using SPN.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/embedded/embed-service-principal#considerations-and-limitations

While we invoke the following:
Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url $url -Method Post -Body $body | ConvertFrom-Json
we get:

Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod: /Users/*********: 
Line |
  88 |  … loyResult = Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod -Url $url  -Method Post -Body $b …
     |                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     | One or more errors occurred. (Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).)

Research direction

Start with the documented Power BI service-principal limitations and the reported Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod call in the issue. Reproduce the 400 response for the dataflow deployment request, then determine the scope needed for dataflow management with SPNs; done means the supported deployment path works without that error.
