API in dataflowgen2
We are working on enabling custom connectors in Dataflow Gen2. Creating a custom connector would be the recommended way to securely store the token and use it for the calls needed to the API. We don't have an ETA that we can share at the moment on when it'll be available.
However, it is technically possible to create your own custom M code to pass the bearer token as clear text and as part of your M code. We do not recommend as the token will not be secure and will simply be part of your M code, but it is technically possible to do this. A sample code is provided below:
let Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://api.XXX.com/", [RelativePath="v1/mycall", Headers=[#"Authorization"="Bearer XXXtokenXXX"]])) in Source
- Thank you Anonymous for the detail explanation on how to use fabric data factory. I am looking to implement the same in the dataflowgen2 also. The bearer token will never change in my case. I believe dataflowgen2 is also perfect choice. The only roadblock I have in dataflowgen2 is how to pass bearertoken.
