Import the result of Postman queries to Power BI

Hi everyone, thank you for your help. I'm new to microsoft fabric and I find it magnificent. However, I am faced with a complex situation.

I want to connect power bi to a database to extract the information. The API has been developed and offers two-factor authentication (Token and basic authentication). With postman I can visualize the data that is in my data box. when I try to connect the API to power BI I'm asked for authentication. 

Since I use two authentication systems, I'm a bit lost.

Should I ask the depreper to set a single authentication system or should I run my requests in Postman and save each result in the JSON files before importing them into Power BI?

Also I would like to know if it is possible to automate this process using the power automate platform?
