Data refresh for Power BI report with API as source
Can we have live data refresh for Power BI report with API as source instead of creating scheduled refresh in Power BI Service?
Hi Anonymous ,
Unfortunately, API's are not on the datasources list available for DirectQuery.
Please refer to this blog post for more in depth clarification: https://blog.crossjoin.co.uk/2021/04/25/can-i-build-a-power-bi-directquery-dataset-on-top-of-a-rest-api/
