What is powerbi-airflow-to-orchestra?

Instructions for rewriting an Apache Airflow task that refreshes a Power BI dataset into an equivalent Orchestra pipeline task.

Use it when migrating Power BI dataset-refresh tasks from Airflow to Orchestra, including cases where dataflow refreshes use direct REST API calls.

It maps connection and dataset settings between the two systems and warns against assuming an operator exists for dataflow refreshes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00125	$0.02706
Opus 5.5	$0.00050	$0.01082

Security

Grade A, and why

powerbi-airflow-to-orchestra scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Power BI: Airflow → Orchestra Conversion

Overview

Airflow's PowerBIDatasetRefreshOperator (from airflow.providers.microsoft.azure.operators.powerbi) triggers a Power BI dataset (semantic model) refresh via an Azure service-principal connection and — being deferrable — waits for the refresh to complete using the Power BI REST API. In Orchestra the equivalent is a task under the POWER_BI integration.

There is no dedicated Airflow operator for dataflow refreshes in apache-airflow-providers-microsoft-azure as of this writing. A dataflow refresh in an Airflow DAG is typically hand-rolled as a PythonOperator/HttpOperator call against the Power BI REST API (POST /groups/{groupId}/dataflows/{dataflowId}/refreshes). Do not invent an operator name for this — treat any such hand-rolled task as a candidate for POWER_BI_REFRESH_DATAFLOW based on what the code is actually calling.

Parameter Mapping

Airflow parameter	Orchestra YAML field	Notes
`conn_id` (e.g. `powerbi_default`)	`connection:`	Orchestra Power BI connection (Azure service principal)
`dataset_id`	`parameters.dataset_id`	Required for `POWER_BI_REFRESH_DATASET`
`group_id`	`parameters.workspace_id`	Airflow's `group_id` is Orchestra's `workspace_id` — same Power BI workspace GUID, renamed field. Leave `null` unless this task's workspace differs from the one configured on the Orchestra connection — see Gotchas
(hand-rolled dataflow call) `dataflowId`	`parameters.dataflow_id`	Required for `POWER_BI_REFRESH_DATAFLOW` instead of `dataset_id`
n/a (Airflow has no equivalent knob)	`parameters.refresh_type`	Optional — one of `Full`, `ClearValues`, `Calculate`, `DataOnly`, `Automatic`, `Defragment` (mirrors Power BI's own `DatasetRefreshType` enum). Leave `null`/omit unless the DAG explicitly requests a non-default refresh type.
n/a	`parameters.apply_refresh_policy`	Optional boolean, defaults to `null`. Only set if the source DAG's REST call explicitly passes `applyRefreshPolicy`.
`task_id`	`name:`	Human-readable task name
upstream `>>` chains	`depends_on:`
