Does any one have any idea about connectivity between Control-M and Power BI ?
I want to achive event based scheduling for Power BI Reports(Paginated Reports).
We are trying to implement even based scheduling in our project. Currenly , In existing architechture they are using control M for scheduling the crystal reports. Is there any other way ? Can we integrate Control M and Powerbi reports using some API ?
Thanks in advance.

Control-M supports CLI, API, the whole shooting match. There is a module (part of the standard Control-M package) called Application Integrator (confusingly referred to as AI) which allows people to create bespoke integrations and (if they wish) share them via a community hub. A BMC staff member has created an integration for Power BI and it can be downloaded here - https://communities.bmc.com/docs/DOC-125437 with a guide here (including the author's email - https://communities.bmc.com/docs/DOC-125436

Yes, you can use the PowerBI API to refresh data up to 8 times a day on Pro or 48 times a day on Premium. You could also use direct query to provide the report data on the fly.
POST https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{group_id}/datasets/{dataset_id}/refreshes
Once the refresh completes you can mail out a link to the report and your users will get the latest.
