Thank you for you suggestion.
But I think it wouldn't do in my case.

My target is to have a single connector file, which would be easy for users of our API to add to there PowerBi datasources. And, at least at the moment, without using PowerBI server side (not sure if I'm correct if it's used in your approach with gateway).

So your solution would be a bit too complex for target users as, they would need to do a lot of configuration on there local to use the API. 
With connector the approach seems very clear and simple to me as:
Target users would:
1. Dowload our connector into custom connectors
2. Allow unsafe connectors for usage
3. Use connector to retrive data from API with inputing any credencials and filters directly in PowerBI in user-friendly windows :)

Hi meyron 

 

Agreed I thought that this is only for a single user and I'm not aware of that you are planning to develop this for a set of users. Yes as per you my approach is difficult in case of more users.

 

Custom connectors will be a good choice, so that all your end users won't need anything to worry about.
