    Hi hvlfc ,

     

    As far as I know, a REST API is an application program interface (API) that uses HTTP requests to GET, PUT, POST and DELETE data. 

    In Power BI, you may add the connection type you want before the url in URL Part. 

    like: GET http:...

    You may refer to this blog to learn how to handle authentication.

    For reference:
