Hi,
I have created a connection to various api using Power BI desktop and can create reports and refresh these are I would expect.
I have now published this to Power BI and I'm unable to refresh or schedule a refresh as there is no gateway set up.
How do I create a gateway for use with an API?
The API connects using an API Key as the "Authorization" with the "Accept" and "ContentType" being set as application/xml (I did try json but this did not work).
Any help appreciated.
Solved! Go to Solution.
If you are only using RESTful web service APIs as your data source, you should not need a gateway
You didn't include the error, so it is hard to say what the cause of the issue would be
