Bind Report Data From A Service or bind dynamically

Is it possible to get the data source from the code or service? 

 

For example, let say I wann my Pie Chart take data from a web service or take data from embeded source code like we bind report viewer in ASP.NET.

    Hi iqb ,

     

    You can try to get the relevant data from the web side in the following way.

     

    Also, what data are you specifically trying to get and what is your application scenario? You can get information about datasets, dashboards and reports, but not the actual data.

    refer to similiar solution:

    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

      Thanks but I think this is called web scraping. This is not what I am asking

    v-henryk-mstf Let me give you an example. If we are developing in ASP.NET Web Forms we can add the UI controls like ReportViewer, GridView, Table, etc. and bind them statically (like we do in Powe BI) or dynamically bind data from code behind file, so that we can take decisions at run time.

    Is this is possibel with Power BI?
