Connect Power BI Desktop with ServiceNow

Hello,

I would like to connect ServiceNow Data via Power BI Desktop. I tried using a Web-Call via REST Api, but as far as i understand this is not possible as Web Calls in Power BI can only be anonymous, yet ServiceNow needs credentials. I am know trying to connect via ODBC. I do not know if i setup the ODBC Connector wrong or if it is just not working.

 

Does anyone have experience connecting Power BI and Service Now successfully?

 

Regards

Dennis

Hi @Anonymous 

If this task is still actual for you, feel free to try Power BI Connector . It is a ready solution that allows easy data export from ServiceNow to Power BI.

Dennis, 

 

We had a user connect to Service Now but they instead connected to the SQL Server that contained the data.  I don't know if this is possible for you but I wanted to mention what they did.

 

Thanks!

Dawn
