Ideas to implement environmental scanning tool

Hi Anonymous, To address your requirement you can start exploring Microsoft Fabric. You can setup your Fabric Trial capacity at free of cost for 60 days, it can further be extended if Microsoft allows us.

Using the fabric capacity you can convert or create a new workspace as a fabric enabled workspace. You can scrape the articles, get weather information through API's in a fabric notebook and store the results or raw data in a lakehouse. You can further do data transformations using a datalow gen 2 (provides a power query experience) and notebook (using pandas, spark,etc). Since you are willing to learn new tools you could start with learning Fabric notebook and how data ingestion is done to a lakehouse using notebook. Please find the below article and videos to get started with Fabric.

IMO, your question is more of domain specific than just simply Power BI.  There are third party service providers that provide keyword-based data via APIs or RSS feeds. Weather data are available from service providers like open-meteo or openweathermap via API for free (with limited features) or with a fee. Data collection can possibly be automated using tools like Zapier or Power Automate. For questions like this where I don't know where to start, asking AI for suggestions would be a big help.
