API Connection Question
I've tried to create a PowerBI connection to the API I was provided by our vendor, but it keeps timing out. Any suggetions on how to achieve an API connection with the details below?
Still an issue with even reporting 1 days worth of data. I spoke with the vendor and we are going to try alternative methods.
Hey, amaasen
try to decrease the scope as much as possible, you can also use Timeout option to set manually the time out. But if it's not failing immediatell,y that'S good sign, so it's kinda hard to troubleshoot without some network logging or something from the vendor site.
It just timed out, I have a narrow scope, just pulling 2 months of data. The dataset itself should only have a hundred or so rows.
Not sure what is happening?
amaasen try single day, but without further info, it can be only the provider side, additionally, try it in Postman or other application that allowes you to send HTTP requests.
