API connection

Anonymous — Fri, 27 Sep 2019 13:36:07 GMT

HI, I have an API key for a data source that I wish to export data from into a Power Bi report. I wish to have it on a push basis and 15 minute refresh. The source does not have a native connector. I have managed to use Postman to use a GET request and get a JSON response, but I would like to automate the process. Can anybody offer any advice?

Thanks in advance
