    Hi ronaldbalza2023 

    Power BI support SSAS connector. You can connect to SSAS by SSAS connector directly.

    Here is the offical blog about how to connect to SSAS in Power BI Desktop.

    For reference: Connect to Analysis Services tabular data in Power BI Desktop

    If you want to connect to your data source by REST API, you may refer to this blog and try web connector.

    Using a REST API as a data source
