Time | Topic | Owner |
---|---|---|
5 m | Review use cases and questions in the comments to determine topics for the meeting. | All |
10 m | What are you working on, share what you are working on now, questions ideas. Can everyone see slack ? | Ann Crawford (Unlicensed) |
15 m | Deployment Automation script on my desktop that collects the Parameters for a target dataset, grabs the .pbix and uploads, restores the Parameters, and kicks off a refresh. Works great and that is the good news. The not so good news is that only the dataset manager (the person who set it up or took it over) can make adjustments to it, and I cannot get the service principal to take over the dataset... meaning that I need to use a real credential to do the work. If we were to use this for Octo we would need to setup a "normal" user without MFA to deploy. | Mark Norstedt |
