consuming https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api from visual studio report project ?

Hello,

 

i've some pbix in production into powerbi.com.

 

my next move would be to create SRSS reports that consume the data from the powerbi.com cube.

 

in visual studio, i tried about every connection type and connection string combination, without luck.

 

is that even possible ? tried by someone else ?

 

thanks all !

    What would you like to do with the API? AFAIK, Power BI doesn't have a REST API to retrive/read table data. Check this idea REST API access to READ datasets and vote it up.

      Hello,

       

      what i want to do is consume the data by configuring a datasource on an local ssrs (sql server report server) instance to generate "static" reports.
