Get Data from WEB LIKE JSON string
Hi Gurus,
Did you happen to know what get data method should I use to get below image. I tried Get Data -> JSON but seems I do not get the drop down option open file as. Any help would be highly appriciated.
Is this a public API? If so, you can provide it and the community can provide the needed M code.
Does the Source step of your query look like this? (check by clicking on Advanced Editor or viewing the Formula Bar in the query editor)
let Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://mywebapi")) in SourcePasted this from here - https://www.edureka.co/community/26876/how-can-i-connect-my-web-api-with-power-bi-reports
If this works for you, please mark it as solution. Kudos are appreciated too. Please let me know if not.
Regards,
Pat

If you are trying to connect to a Web API that gives a JSON response, use the Web connector instead. It will recoginize the response as JSON and you navigate/extract your data from there.
