    Hi mohsin-raza ,

     

    As of now, PowerBI does not provide an official connector for SOAP. As a solution, we can use the XML driver to create SQL queries to call the SOAP API in Power BI, please refer to the following blog.

    Calling SOAP API in Power BI (Read XML Web Service data) | ZappySys Blog

     

    Another solution is to use a Python script to get data from SOAP and then transfer that data to Pandas data frames that PowerBI can read.

    Also, you can refer to similiar solution as below:

    How to get data from a SOAP WS with Power BI - Microsoft Power BI Community


    If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.


    Best Regards,
    Henry
