Hi All,
I have a little trouble with an API call in Insightly. I would like to see organization addresses as well in my reports
I have the following API description: https://api.insight.ly/v2.2/Help#!/Organisations/GetOrganisations
If I do the first expansion I can see a list of my values. That's great but do not know how to map them back.
I tried the following but I'm getting an error.
let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://api.insight.ly/v2.2/Organisations", [Headers=[Authorization="Basic <MYKEY>", ContentType="application/json"]])),
Organisations = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expand_1 = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(Organisations, "Column1", {
"ORGANISATION_ID",
"ORGANISATION_NAME",
"BACKGROUND",
"IMAGE_URL",
"OWNER_USER_ID",
"DATE_CREATED_UTC",
"DATE_UPDATED_UTC",
"VISIBLE_TO",
"VISIBLE_TEAM_ID",
"VISIBLE_USER_IDS",
"ADDRESSES",
"CONTACTINFOS",
"DATES",
"TAGS",
"LINKS",
"ORGANISATIONLINKS",
"CAN_EDIT",
"CAN_DELETE",
"SOCIAL_LINKEDIN",
"SOCIAL_FACEBOOK",
"SOCIAL_TWITTER"
}),
Addresses= Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expand_2 = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(expand_1, "ADDRESSES", {"ADDRESS_ID"}, {"ADDRESS_ID"})
in
expand_2
Error code: Expression.Error: We cannot convert a value of type List to type Record.
Details:
Value=List
Type=Type
Do you have any idea how to map it? It is also good for me to have 2 queries than connect them somehow into relations.
Thanks in advance!
BR, István
Solved! Go to Solution.
Based on the error message, you may try Table.ExpandListColumn first.

Thanks. I will give it a try.
