working with a client to setup azure purview and the one issue we have is with Power BI scanning. We have created a security group and added the purview managed identity into that group and granted that group access to use the PBI admin API in the tenant settings as per the documentation. However we now get the following error message: Error (9512) ErrorCode: (3871) Failed to enable the PowerBI administrator API to fetch basic metadata and lineage.
Any ideas as to what is the cause as i cant find any details on this error online.
The tenant id picked up by purview matches the power bi tenant id where the setting has been enabled.

@James Perry Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A !!
Is your Purview account and Power BI account in same tenant ?
@Saurabh Sharma yes they are in the same tenant so the tenant id picked up by Purview matches the tenant id where the setting and security group have been applied.
@James Perry Thanks for providing this information. At this time, we are reaching out to the internal team to get some help on this . We will update you once we hear back from them.
Hi @James Perry ,
While checking internally with the products team I got to know that you have already a support case open against this issue and engineers are working with you to identify the root cause of this issue. I will be internally tracking this case however please let me know if you need help on anything else.
Thanks
Saurabh

@Saurabh Sharma Hi, I am having the same issue, any update on this thanks.

I am also experiencing this error.
Definitely operating within the same tenant, but PBI and Purview are in different regions...could that be the issue?
Thanks
this issue has now been confirmed as a bug and is actively being looked at by the product team. I will post an update once the resolution is deployed and we have this working.

I have the same issue
@Jackson, Kristopher Sorry for your trouble. I have checked internally as few other customers were facing the same issue as mentioned by @James Perry it has been identified as a bug which products team is currently working on. I will also track this internally and update here once I hear back.
All, just to confirm that this issue has now been resolved by the product team and we can setup and complete a scan without any changes on our side.
My issue also resolved. Thanks!
@Dirk Grobbelaar That is our scenario too as purview is not available in the same region as the PBI tenant. The investigation into the issue is still ongoing at the moment but will let you know when we get to a resolution.
@James Perry , @Dirk Grobbelaar @Justin Tran Have you allowed your service principal to use Power BI Admin APIs as mentioned over here.
Yes, I've enabled this.
@Saurabh Sharma from my side then yes that has been done. Our current error message has changed over the past day to: "PowerBI subartifacts details are not enabled" this is after creating another group and moving the account over to it but adding to the PBI admin api group in the exact same way.
Hi @James Perry , thanks for the update...good to know there is Dev looking at the bug.
FYI, I also noticed the change to the new error message, and in my case I didn't make any change to the service group I was using ...so there's evidence that there's work taking place.
Please do share the resolution if it is communicated to you.
Thanks
Dirk
Magic! Thanks for the update...issue resolved.
