I need to setup powershell script for refreshing tabular model cube on Azure, Microsoft SQL Analysis Server (version 15.0.0.52). I wrote this solution, but every time when it's executed I have same errors.
# PowerShell code
# Connect to a connection to get TenantId and SubscriptionId
$Connection = Get-AutomationConnection -Name "AzureRunAsConnection"
$TenantId = $Connection.TenantId
$SubscriptionId = $Connection.SubscriptionId
# Get the service principal credentials connected to the automation account.
$null = $SPCredential = Get-AutomationPSCredential -Name "Samcred"
# Login to Azure ($null is to prevent output, since Out-Null doesn't work in Azure)
Write-Output "Login to Azure using automation account 'Samcred'."
$null = Login-AzureRmAccount -TenantId $TenantId -SubscriptionId $SubscriptionId -Credential $SPCredential
# Select the correct subscription
Write-Output "Selecting subscription '$($SubscriptionId)'."
$null = Select-AzureRmSubscription -SubscriptionID $SubscriptionId
# Get variable values
$DatabaseName = Get-AutomationVariable -Name 'DatabaseName'
$AnalysisServerName = Get-AutomationVariable -Name 'AnalysisServerName'
# Show info before processing (for testing/logging purpose only)
Write-Output "Processing $($DatabaseName) on $($AnalysisServerName)"
#Process database
$null = Invoke-ProcessASDatabase -databasename $DatabaseName -server $AnalysisServerName -RefreshType "Full" -Credential $SPCredential
# Show done when finished (for testing/logging purpose only)
Write-Output "Done"
Errors are:
Login to Azure using automation account 'Samcred'.

Any advice about this ?
$null = $SPCredential = Get-AutomationPSCredential -Name "Samcred"
If you use Microsoft account to login Azure, you will get the error log. In Azure runbook, you could use service principal to login, not use a account. Change your script like below:
$connectionName = "AzureRunAsConnection"
try
{
# Get the connection "AzureRunAsConnection "
$servicePrincipalConnection=Get-AutomationConnection -Name $connectionName
"Logging in to Azure..."
Add-AzureRmAccount `
-ServicePrincipal `
-TenantId $servicePrincipalConnection.TenantId `
-ApplicationId $servicePrincipalConnection.ApplicationId `
-CertificateThumbprint $servicePrincipalConnection.CertificateThumbprint
}
catch {
if (!$servicePrincipalConnection)
{
$ErrorMessage = "Connection $connectionName not found."
throw $ErrorMessage
} else{
Write-Error -Message $_.Exception
throw $_.Exception
}
}
