I have this Models to get data from external API:-
and this advance query:-
let
body=Text.Combine({"sAPIKey=",ApiKey}),
SourceAPILogin=Json.Document(
Web.Contents(
SmartAPI,
[
RelativePath="apilogin",
Headers=[Accept="application/json", #"Content-Type"="application/x-www-form-urlencoded",#"API-Key"=Token],
Content=Text.ToBinary(body)
]
)
),
tblGetUID = Table.FromList(SourceAPILogin, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expGetUID = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(tblGetUID, "Column1", {"UID", "LanguageCode", "DatabaseVersion"}, {"Column1.UID", "Column1.LanguageCode", "Column1.DatabaseVersion"}),
GetUID = expGetUID{0}[Column1.UID],
Source=Json.Document(
Web.Contents(
SmartAPI,
[
RelativePath = "gettimeledgerentry", //RESTAPI endpoint
//Query = [#"Filter" ="WorkTypeCode LIKE 'Normal'"], // QueryParameters
Headers=[Accept="application/json", #"Content-Type"="application/json",#"API-Key"=Token, UID=GetUID, DeviceID=ApiKey] //Headers
]
)
),
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
//display all the columns from query
Result=Table.ExpandRecordColumn( #"Converted to Table","Column1", Table.ColumnNames(Table.FromRecords(List.Select(Table.Column(#"Converted to Table","Column1"), each _ <> "" and _ <> null))),Table.ColumnNames(Table.FromRecords(List.Select(Table.Column(#"Converted to Table","Column1"), each _ <> "" and _ <> null)))),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Result,{{"StartTime", type datetime}, {"EndTime", type datetime}, {"LogStart", type datetime}, {"LogEnd", type datetime}})
in
#"Changed Type"
Then i am showing the data inside 2 pages, as follow:-
now seems the data inside the reports will not get updated unless i do a manual refresh to the data source. so how i can enable an automatic refresh to the report data? or when a user visit the reprot to get the data updated data from the API?
Thanks

@ahadkarimi Thanks again for the reply. I published the reprot to My workspace not to power bi server.. and i share it using onedrive.. sorry i am a bit new to power BI.. so not sure if i can set a schdule for my reprot.
@ahadkarimi Thanks for the reply. Ok i set those schdule inside my workspace:-
which means that the report should get updated 8 times per day? am i correct?
