Get data from form builder app
Hi,
I am having problem getting data submitted in www.123formsbuilder.com into PBI, it shows
or even when I put API keys/ username / pw, it also shows followings:
Question is how can I get data submitted in forms I build into PBI?
Thank You.
Update (June 5, 2018):
123forms advise to sync the form with G.sheet, then have PBI connect to G.Sheet instead.
Thank you all for your recommendations.

I don't know 123 Forms Builder specifically, but the connector you are using is attempting to load a webpage and scan that page for data. If you are submitting forms, where is the data being stored? Does 123 Forms Builder have a backend database that it stores the information? If so, what database do they use? Do you they give you a username and password for that database? Have they provided you with database connection information.
they said I can connect via API Numbers which also did not work. I will check on Uname & Pw for DB then.
Is there any other recommendation or Question I should ask them?

Thank you.
As them specifically about Power BI and see if they have any information about making such a connection.
If they don't, ask them about what "Data Connectors" they do allow.
If they suggest that Rest API is all that will give you access to, then you have a much more technical road to venture down.
Here is an article of what you can do with Rest APIs
