2-Step API GET Request

Hey, 

I would like to do a 2-Step API Get request to a Billing API. The API looks like the following:

https://customer.service.com/billing/invoices

For this first API you will get a JSON which shows the information about all the past invoices with the total numbers but without any details about the single invoices. To get those details you need to make a second request which looks like the following:

https://customer.service.com/billing/invoices/<id>

In this second call you need to put the Id of the Invoice and you will get all details about the invoice.

Is this a scenario which can be setup in PowerBI? I would like to have one big table which contains all the detailed information about every invoice.

Thanks in advance!

This will be the least of your issues.  What's the authentication method?

In the first use case it's basic auth with an API key and in the second use case it's with digest auth with public and private key. I just read that digest auth isn't working, but maybe it works for the first use case with basic auth.
